2. Ingredients for Viral Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters

• 1 cup strawberries, chopped
• 1 cup Greek yogurt (preferably full-fat or low-fat)
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional for extra sweetness)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans – optional)

3. How to Make Frozen Yogurt Snack Clusters

Preparation of Strawberry and Yogurt Mixture

Begin by blending the Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and nuts if using. This combination creates a delightful mix of creamy, fruity, and crunchy textures.

Melting the Chocolate

Next, melt the dark chocolate chips using a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely smooth. For an even chocolate coating, ensure the chocolate is just melted and not overheated.

Assembling the Clusters

Drop spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or silicone baking mat. Drizzle the melted chocolate over each spoonful. You can also dip the clusters into the melted chocolate for a more coated look. Place the tray in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours or until the clusters are solid.

4. Storage Tips for Frozen Yogurt Clusters

Once frozen, store your frozen yogurt snack clusters in an airtight container or resealable plastic bags, separating layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months. To serve, simply take out a few clusters and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying.

6. Variations and Tips

• Use white chocolate instead of dark for a different flavor profile.
• Add shredded coconut or sprinkles for extra texture and color.
• For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt and dark chocolate with dairy-free chocolate chips.
• Adjust sweetness by adding more or less honey or maple syrup depending on your preference.
• Make small batches for a quick treat or larger batches for parties or family gatherings.

7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use fresh strawberries instead of frozen?

Yes, fresh strawberries work well, but frozen strawberries give a more chilled, firm texture which is ideal for frozen treats. If using fresh strawberries, consider freezing the mixture slightly for a similar result.

Are these vegan-friendly?

To make vegan healthy frozen treats, use plant-based yogurt such as coconut or almond yogurt and dairy-free chocolate chips. This way, the clusters can be enjoyed by vegans too.

How long does it take to prepare before freezing?

The preparation time for these yogurt clusters is approximately 15-20 minutes. The freezing process takes an additional 2-3 hours for the best texture and crunchiness.

Can I customize the ingredients?

Absolutely! Feel free to add your favorite nuts, seeds, or even protein powders to personalize your frozen yogurt snack.
