Directions

In a medium-sized bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract together until well combined.
Gently fold in the chopped strawberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture.
Using a spoon, scoop the yogurt mixture and form small dollops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the sheet in the freezer and allow the yogurt bites to freeze for about 1-2 hours, or until firm.
While the bites are freezing, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth.
Once the yogurt bites are frozen, dip each one into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it completely. Return the chocolate-covered bites to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Place the bites back in the freezer for an additional 30 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set.
Serve and enjoy these frozen, chocolate-dipped yogurt bites!

Servings and Timing

This recipe makes about 15-20 yogurt bites, depending on the size of each bite. The total preparation and freezing time is approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, which includes time for freezing and chocolate setting.

Variations

If you want to switch up the flavor, feel free to swap the strawberries with other fruits such as blueberries, raspberries, or sliced bananas.
For added crunch, sprinkle some crushed nuts or granola over the yogurt bites before freezing.
If you prefer a dairy-free option, use coconut or almond yogurt and dairy-free chocolate chips.
For a more decadent treat, add a drizzle of caramel or peanut butter over the chocolate-covered bites before freezing.

Storage/Reheating

I like to store these frozen yogurt bites in an airtight container in the freezer. They will stay fresh for up to two weeks. Since these bites are meant to be enjoyed frozen, there’s no need to reheat them. Simply take them out of the freezer when you’re ready to indulge and enjoy them right away!

FAQs

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

Yes, you can use regular yogurt, but Greek yogurt is thicker and creamier, which gives the bites a more satisfying texture. If you use regular yogurt, consider draining it to remove excess liquid for a firmer texture.

Can I make these yogurt bites ahead of time?

Definitely! These frozen yogurt bites store well in the freezer and can be made several days in advance. Just make sure to keep them in an airtight container to maintain their freshness.

Can I use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate?

Yes, milk chocolate will work just as well! It will give the bites a sweeter flavor, while dark chocolate provides a more bitter, rich taste. Choose whichever one you prefer!

How long do these frozen yogurt bites last?

They will stay fresh for up to two weeks in the freezer if stored in an airtight container. Be sure to eat them within that time frame for the best taste and texture.

Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones?

While fresh strawberries are ideal for the best texture, you can use frozen strawberries if needed. Just make sure to thaw and drain them before adding them to the yogurt mixture to avoid excess moisture.

Conclusion

Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are an easy-to-make, healthy snack or dessert that’s perfect for satisfying your sweet cravings without feeling guilty. They’re simple to prepare and customizable to suit your taste preferences. Whether you’re enjoying them as a treat on a hot day or looking for a quick and healthy snack option, these yogurt bites are sure to be a hit.
