Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla, full-fat recommended)
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, washed, hulled, and diced
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 12 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts such as almonds or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Wash, hull, and dice your fresh strawberries into small pieces to ensure each cluster has a balanced bite of fruit in every mouthful.
  2. Mix the Yogurt and Sweetener: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter cluster. This also helps bind the ingredients together.
  3. Add the Strawberries and Nuts: Gently fold in the diced strawberries and optional chopped nuts, distributing flavors evenly while keeping the fruit pieces intact.
  4. Form the Clusters: Using a spoon, scoop small dollops of the yogurt mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray, shaping each into bite-sized clusters.
  5. Drizzle or Sprinkle Chocolate: Melt the dark chocolate chips if you prefer fully coated clusters, or simply sprinkle the chocolate chips on top for a chocolate accent.
  6. Freeze Until Firm: Place the tray in the freezer for at least two hours or until the clusters are completely set and easy to remove from the parchment paper.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and better freezing results.
  • Pat strawberries dry to remove excess juice, preventing watery clusters.
  • Melting the chocolate before drizzling helps it adhere better and creates a smoother finish.
  • Work quickly during assembly to keep the yogurt from softening at room temperature.
  • Store clusters in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn and preserve freshness.
