Ingredients
Scale
1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full fat or 2%
1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
1 teaspoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional binder)
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chopped strawberries, and optional maple syrup or chia seeds. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small clusters about 1 inch wide.
Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until the clusters are solid.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth.
Remove the frozen clusters from the freezer. Dip the bottom or drizzle the tops of each cluster with the melted chocolate.
Return the clusters to the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set completely.
Store the finished clusters in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
Use thick Greek yogurt for the best cluster shape. Thin yogurt will spread more.
For a different flavor, substitute white chocolate or milk chocolate for the dark chocolate.
If you prefer a sweeter cluster, add 1 tablespoon of powdered sweetener to the yogurt mixture.
For a crunch, mix in 1/4 cup of chopped almonds or hemp seeds with the yogurt.
