I make Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters when I want a cool, easy treat. I love how the sweet strawberry and dark chocolate meet the tang of yogurt, and I often pair this with other quick sweets like my Greek yogurt chocolate mousse for dessert nights.
My sister Jennifer asked me to bring these to her picnic, and Dad James kept sneaking extra clusters while Mom Eva watched and smiled.
Your Ingredients List
- 1 1/2 cups chopped strawberries
- 1 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
My Go-To Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Spoon or small cookie scoop
- Parchment paper or a silicone mat
- Baking sheet or large plate
- Microwave-safe bowl
- Freezer-safe storage container
The Simple Steps to Follow
- Mix the strawberries, yogurt, honey, and vanilla in a large bowl.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mix onto a parchment-lined sheet to form clusters.
- Make about 10 clusters.
- Freeze the clusters until they are solid, about 1 to 2 hours.
- Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 15 to 30 seconds.
- Dip each frozen cluster into the melted chocolate and place back on the sheet.
- Add a small pinch of sea salt if you like.
- Freeze a few minutes more so the chocolate sets and the yogurt firms.
Healthy Twists on a Classic
Swap honey for maple syrup or use low-fat Greek yogurt to cut calories. For more ideas with Greek yogurt and chocolate, I also like the ideas in best pumpkin muffin recipes with chocolate chips to inspire season twists.
Serving Suggestions From My Table
I serve these straight from the freezer on a small platter. They pair well with coffee or a simple fruit salad, and they make a neat dessert alongside a rich cake like my friend’s chocolate cherry upside-down cake for a party.
Getting It Just Right
Use full-strength Greek yogurt so the clusters hold form. Chop strawberries small so each bite gets fruit. Work quickly when dipping so clusters stay frozen and the chocolate coats cleanly.
How to Store Leftovers
Place the clusters in a single layer in a freezer-safe container with parchment between layers. Keep them in the freezer for up to two weeks for best taste and texture.
Enjoy Every Moment
I make a small batch and enjoy them slowly. They are simple, fast, and always bring a smile.
A Few Common Questions
Should I freeze the clusters before dipping?
Yes. For Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters (Viral Recipe!), freeze the clusters until solid, then dip one at a time so they keep a firm shape.
Can I use dairy-free yogurt?
You can use a dairy-free yogurt, but the texture may be softer. If you try non-dairy yogurt for Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters (Viral Recipe!), pick a thick one and freeze a bit longer.
What if the chocolate gets grainy?
If the chocolate gets grainy, stir it over low heat or use short microwave bursts while stirring. For Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters (Viral Recipe!), add the coconut oil to help the chocolate smooth out.
