How to Make Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters
These chocolate covered strawberry yogurt clusters are incredibly simple to make.
Step 1: Prep the Strawberries
Wash and dice your fresh strawberries into small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the easier the clusters will hold together.
Pat them dry with a paper towel so the yogurt mixture doesn't get watery.
Step 2: Mix the Yogurt Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine:
- diced strawberries
- vanilla yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- vanilla extract
Stir until everything is well combined and the strawberries are evenly coated.
Step 3: Scoop the Clusters
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop 2 tablespoon-sized portions of the strawberry yogurt mixture onto the baking sheet.
They don't have to look perfect!
Step 4: Freeze
Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 1-2 hours, or until the clusters are completely frozen and firm.
Freezing them first is important so they hold their shape when dipped in chocolate.
Step 5: Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
Step 6: Dip the Clusters
Remove the frozen yogurt clusters from the freezer.
Using a fork or spoon, dip each cluster into the melted chocolate, making sure it's coated.
Place the dipped clusters back onto the parchment-lined tray.
Step 7: Freeze Again
Return the tray to the freezer for another 10-15 minutes so the chocolate can fully set.
Once the chocolate hardens, your frozen strawberry yogurt clusters are ready to enjoy!
Storage Tips
These clusters should be stored in the freezer.
Place them in an airtight container and keep frozen for up to 2 months.
When you're ready to eat one, let it sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes so the yogurt softens slightly.
Are Strawberry Yogurt Clusters Healthy?
Compared to many frozen desserts, these clusters are a homemade healthier option!
They contain:
- fresh fruit
- protein-rich yogurt
- portion-controlled chocolate
Using Greek yogurt also adds protein, which helps make these clusters a more satisfying snack.
Tips for the Best Strawberry Yogurt Clusters
A few simple tricks will help your clusters turn out perfectly every time.
Use thick yogurt
Greek yogurt works best because it's thicker and helps the clusters hold together.
Dry the strawberries
Too much moisture can make the yogurt mixture icy.
Freeze completely before dipping
If the clusters aren't fully frozen, they can fall apart when dipped in chocolate.
Use parchment paper
This prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy.
Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Cluster Variations
One of the best things about this recipe is how easy it is to customize.
Berry Yogurt Clusters
Swap the strawberries for:
- blueberries
- raspberries
- blackberries
Or use a mix of all three for mixed berry yogurt clusters.
Can I Use Frozen Strawberries?
Fresh strawberries work best for this recipe because frozen strawberries release more liquid when thawed.
If you only have frozen strawberries available, thaw them first and drain any excess liquid before mixing them with the yogurt.
