INGREDIENTS You Need

This Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites ingredient list is SHORT but mighty! We’re talking flavor powerhouses that come together to create something truly special. Get ready to meet the stars of the show:

Ingredients for making Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt: This is the base of our creamy, dreamy bites. Make sure it’s plain, not vanilla or flavored, so we can control the sweetness. The secret to an incredible Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites is to opt for full-fat Greek yogurt. Trust me, the extra creaminess makes all the difference!
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped: Fresh strawberries are a must! Their bright, tangy flavor is what makes these bites so irresistible. For the very best Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites, you should buy your strawberries from a local farmers market where the flavor is fresh and hasn’t been compromised by cross-country transport.
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup: This is our natural sweetener. Adjust the amount to your liking, depending on how sweet your strawberries are. If you want to keep this completely vegan, opt for maple syrup.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract: A touch of vanilla enhances the sweetness and adds a subtle depth of flavor. Splurge on good quality vanilla extract when making Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites– trust me, it’s worth it!
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped: This is the decadent finish that takes these bites to the next level. I recommend using at least 70% cacao for a rich, intense flavor. You’ll find the best dark chocolate for these Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites in the specialty baking aisle of your local grocery store. Look for brands that use high-quality cocoa beans for the best flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil: This helps the chocolate melt smoothly and gives it a glossy finish. If you don’t have coconut oil, you can also use butter, but I prefer the slightly tropical hint from the coconut.

Here’s the Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites game-changer that will blow your mind: add a pinch of sea salt to the yogurt mixture! It enhances the sweetness and balances the flavors perfectly.

Storage tip: Prep your strawberries ahead of time and store them in an airtight container in the fridge. This will save you time when you’re ready to assemble the Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Alright, flavor adventurers, let’s get down to business! This is where the magic happens, where simple ingredients transform into Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites that will make you want to do a happy dance. Follow these steps carefully, and I promise you’ll be rewarded with pure deliciousness.

Prep the Yogurt Mixture

In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chopped strawberries, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated. Pro tip for Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites perfection: Don’t overmix! Just stir until everything is combined, otherwise, the yogurt can become runny. Don’t stress – your Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are going to be incredible!

Spread the Yogurt

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer, about 1/4 inch thick. I like to use an offset spatula to make sure it’s perfectly smooth. Here’s where most people mess up their Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites – but not you! Make sure the yogurt layer isn’t too thin, or the bites will be too fragile.

Freeze

Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely solid. In my kitchen, this Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites takes exactly 3 hours and 30 minutes to freeze completely. This is crucial for getting those perfect, bite-sized pieces later on.

Melt the Chocolate

While the yogurt is freezing, prepare the chocolate. Place the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat the chocolate, or it will seize up. Your Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites should smell absolutely divine at this stage!

Cut and Dip

Once the yogurt is frozen solid, remove it from the freezer. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the frozen yogurt into bite-sized squares or rectangles. I find that squares are the easiest to handle. Dip each piece of frozen yogurt into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it completely. You can use a fork or dipping tools for this step. This is where your Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites transforms into pure magic!

Set the Chocolate

Place the chocolate-covered yogurt bites back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, you can sprinkle them with a little extra chopped strawberries or a pinch of sea salt. Return the baking sheet to the freezer for another 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to set completely. While your Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites is working its magic, grab your camera – this is Instagram gold!

Enjoy!

Once the chocolate is set, your Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are ready to enjoy! Store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month (if they last that long!).

PRESENTATION

Presentation is key, flavor adventurers! These Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites deserve to be shown off in all their glory. Here’s how to make them look as amazing as they taste:

For a simple yet elegant presentation, arrange the Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites on a chilled platter. Garnish with a few fresh strawberries and a dusting of cocoa powder. People absolutely lose their minds when I serve this Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites at summer barbecues!

Pair these bites with a glass of sparkling rosé or a light, refreshing white wine. The bubbles and acidity will cut through the richness of the chocolate and complement the strawberry flavor perfectly. This Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites absolutely slays at dinner parties!

These Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are perfect for so many occasions! Think summer picnics, backyard barbecues, or even a fancy brunch, or as a guilt-free midnight snack. They’re also a great make-ahead dessert for parties, since they can be stored in the freezer for up to a month.

For an Instagram-worthy plating technique, try layering the bites in a clear glass bowl or trifle dish. This will show off the beautiful layers of yogurt and chocolate. Sprinkle with edible flowers for an extra touch of elegance.

Got leftovers? Don’t worry, these bites are delicious straight from the freezer! But if you want to get creative, try crumbling them over a bowl of granola or adding them to a smoothie for an extra boost of flavor.

For a seasonal variation, try using different fruits like raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries. You can also add a touch of peppermint extract to the chocolate for a festive holiday treat.

FAQs

Got questions? I’ve got answers! Here are some of the most common challenges flavor adventurers face when making these Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites, along with my confident, Cuba Queen-approved solutions:

  • Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh? While fresh strawberries are best for flavor, you can use frozen in a pinch. Just make sure to thaw them completely and drain off any excess liquid before adding them to the yogurt mixture. They will let off a lot of water so you may not get the same creamy consistency.
  • What if I don’t have Greek yogurt? You can use regular yogurt, but the bites won’t be as thick and creamy. You may need to add a little extra honey or maple syrup to compensate for the tanginess.
  • Can I make these Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites spicier? I love the question! While this recipe is delicious as is, you can absolutely add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chocolate for a spicy kick.
  • What if I don’t have coconut oil? You can use butter or another neutral-flavored oil in its place. However, I find that coconut oil gives the chocolate a smoother, glossier finish.
  • How do I know when the Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites is perfectly done? The yogurt mixture should be completely frozen solid, and the chocolate should be set and firm to the touch. If the chocolate is still melty, return the bites to the freezer for a few more minutes.
  • My chocolate seized up! What do I do? Don’t panic! This can happen if the chocolate gets too hot or if there’s any moisture in the bowl. Try adding a teaspoon of vegetable oil or shortening to the chocolate and stirring vigorously until it smooths out. Next time, microwave in shorter intervals and be extra careful to avoid any contact with water.
  • Can I make these Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites ahead of time? Absolutely! These bites are perfect for making ahead. Simply store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month.
