How to Make It

Follow these simple steps to create your Strawberry Yogurt Bites.

1. Prepare the pan

Line a 24-count mini muffin pan with paper liners or use a silicone muffin pan.

2. Melt the chocolate

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate over medium heat, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent burning.

3. Fill with chocolate

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into the bottom of each muffin mold. Place in the refrigerator or freezer for about 5-10 minutes to harden slightly (it doesn’t need to harden all the way).

4. Mix the yogurt filling

While the chocolate is chilling, add yogurt to a medium bowl. Stir in honey (if using) until well combined. Fold in the chopped strawberries.

5. Add yogurt mixture

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of yogurt mixture on top of each chocolate cup.

6. Freeze the bites

Freeze for 2-3 hours, or until completely frozen. When ready to serve, remove yogurt bites from molds and allow them to thaw for several minutes, if desired.

How to Store It

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Freezer: Yes, they freeze well for up to 1 month.
Reheat: Not applicable, serve frozen.

• For the best texture, ensure the chocolate has cooled slightly before pouring it into the molds.
