Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters

These Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters are one of my favorite healthy sweet treats. They’re made with just a few simple ingredients—fresh strawberries, creamy yogurt, and a layer of rich dark chocolate. I keep a batch of them in the freezer for whenever I’m craving something indulgent but still nutritious.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how easy these clusters are to make, and they taste like a dessert straight out of a fancy shop. The combo of sweet berries, tangy yogurt, and crunchy chocolate is irresistible. Plus, they’re no-bake, naturally sweetened, and make the perfect cool-down snack or light dessert. I can also feel good knowing they’re packed with protein and antioxidants.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

• Fresh strawberries, chopped

• Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

• Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

• Vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)

• Dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate

• Coconut oil (to help melt the chocolate smoothly)

Directions

1. I start by washing and chopping the strawberries into small pieces.

2. In a bowl, I mix the strawberries with Greek yogurt, adding a little honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract if I want a sweeter flavor.

3. I scoop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined tray, creating small clusters.

4. I place the tray in the freezer for about 1–2 hours, until the clusters are fully frozen.

5. While they freeze, I melt the dark chocolate with a bit of coconut oil in the microwave or on the stovetop.

6. Once the clusters are frozen, I dip or drizzle them with the melted chocolate and return them to the freezer until the chocolate hardens.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 12 clusters, depending on the size. It takes 10 minutes to prep, plus around 2 hours total freezing time. I always recommend waiting until they’re fully frozen before adding the chocolate.

Variations

I like swapping strawberries for blueberries, raspberries, or even chopped mango for a twist. Sometimes I mix in granola or chopped nuts with the yogurt for added crunch. When I want a dairy-free option, I use coconut yogurt and dairy-free chocolate.

storage/reheating

I store the clusters in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Since they melt quickly, I always eat them straight from the freezer. I never reheat them—they’re meant to be enjoyed frozen for the best texture.

FAQs

Can I use non-dairy yogurt for this recipe?

Yes, I often use almond or coconut yogurt, and it works just as well with the same creamy texture.

Do I have to sweeten the yogurt?

Not at all. If I use vanilla yogurt or if the strawberries are sweet enough, I skip the sweetener.

Can I skip the chocolate?

Yes, but I love the chocolate layer for that perfect contrast. It’s optional, though—it still tastes great without it.

How do I keep the yogurt from getting icy?

Using Greek yogurt helps keep the texture creamy. I also try to avoid adding too much fruit juice to the mix.

Are these clusters kid-friendly?

Absolutely. I make them for my kids all the time—they love the sweet, cold bites and I love how healthy they are.

Conclusion

These Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters are a refreshing, guilt-free way to satisfy a sweet tooth. Whether I’m reaching for a quick snack or prepping dessert for guests, they never disappoint. They’re simple, wholesome, and always hit the spot—especially on warm days or after dinner.
