How to Make the Recipe

Let’s walk through the simple steps to create these tasty bites:

  1. Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt and honey. Mix well until smooth. If using vanilla yogurt, reduce the honey to 1 tablespoon for a less sweet option.
  2. Add Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries into the yogurt mixture until they’re evenly distributed.
  3. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Melt the Chocolate: In a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips. If using the microwave, heat in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval until smooth.
  5. Add Coconut Oil: Stir in the coconut oil into the melted chocolate to ensure a smooth coating.
  6. Form the Bites: Use a small cookie scoop or a spoon to drop rounded portions of the yogurt-strawberry mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. You should end up with around 12-15 bites.
  7. Coat with Chocolate: Dip each yogurt bite into the melted chocolate, ensuring they’re fully coated. Place the chocolate-covered bites back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Season with Sea Salt: Lightly sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate-covered bites for a touch of flavor contrast.
  9. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden completely.
  10. Serve and Enjoy: Once set, these bites are ready to be devoured! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some tips to ensure your Strawberry Yogurt Chocolate Bites turn out perfectly:

  • Use High-Quality Chocolate: For the best flavor, opt for high-quality chocolate chips. Dark chocolate works especially well for a richer taste.
  • Don’t Overmix: Be gentle when folding the strawberries into the yogurt mixture to avoid releasing too much juice, which can make the mixture too runny.
  • Chill Properly: Make sure to chill the yogurt mixture before forming the bites. This helps the bites hold their shape better when coating with chocolate.
  • Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to mix in other berries like blueberries or raspberries for a different twist. You could also add a sprinkle of cinnamon or vanilla powder for extra flavor.

How to Serve

These Strawberry Yogurt Chocolate Bites are incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in various ways:

  • As a Snack: They make a great quick snack for when you need something sweet and satisfying.
  • After Dinner: Serve them as a light dessert after a hearty meal. They’re especially perfect after something savory, like a Keto Chocolate Fat Bomb or a Best Peach Crisp.
  • For Guests: These bites are also a fantastic option when entertaining. They’re easy to serve and look beautiful on a dessert platter.

Make Ahead and Storage

One of the best things about this recipe is how well it keeps. Here’s how to store your Strawberry Yogurt Chocolate Bites:

  • Refrigerate: Store the bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. They’re best served chilled.
  • Freeze: If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Simply thaw in the fridge or at room temperature when you’re ready to enjoy.

And there you have it—your new go-to recipe for a quick, delicious, and healthier sweet treat.
