Chocolate strawberry yogurt clusters are a refreshing, bite-sized treat made with juicy strawberries, creamy yogurt, and a crisp chocolate shell. They’re the perfect combination of fruity, creamy, and chocolatey, and I love that they’re made with simple ingredients.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how easy these are to make—just mix, freeze, dip, and enjoy. They’re naturally sweet from the strawberries, creamy from the yogurt, and finished with a rich chocolate coating that adds just the right crunch. I can make a batch ahead of time and store them in the freezer for whenever I want a cool, satisfying treat. Plus, they feel indulgent without being heavy.

Ingredients

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

Fresh strawberries (diced)
Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)
Honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
Vanilla extract (optional)
Chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (semi-sweet or dark)
Coconut oil (for melting chocolate smoothly)

Directions

I dice the strawberries into small pieces and mix them with Greek yogurt in a bowl. I usually add a touch of honey and vanilla for extra flavor.
I scoop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, creating little clusters.
I freeze the clusters for at least 1–2 hours, or until they’re firm.
While they’re freezing, I melt the chocolate with coconut oil until smooth and glossy.
Once the clusters are frozen solid, I dip each one into the melted chocolate and place them back on the parchment paper.
I return them to the freezer for another 15–20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
I keep them frozen until ready to enjoy.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 10–12 clusters, depending on the size. Prep takes about 15 minutes, plus 2 hours for freezing. In total, I allow around 2.5 hours from start to finish, but most of that time is just waiting.

Variations

Sometimes I swap strawberries for other berries like blueberries or raspberries. I’ve also tried using flavored yogurt like strawberry or vanilla for a sweeter taste without extra honey. For a crunch, I sprinkle crushed nuts or granola on top before the chocolate sets. And if I want to skip the chocolate dip, I just drizzle it instead for a lighter version.

Storage/Reheating

I store the clusters in an airtight container in the freezer. They last for up to 2 weeks, but they’re usually gone way before that. I let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before eating, so they’re not too hard. I don’t recommend reheating them since they’re meant to be eaten cold.

FAQs

Can I use non-dairy yogurt?

Yes, I often use coconut or almond-based yogurt for a dairy-free version. It still freezes well and tastes just as creamy.

What kind of chocolate works best?

I like using semi-sweet or dark chocolate for a nice contrast to the sweet and tangy yogurt. Milk chocolate works too if I want something sweeter.

Do I have to dip the clusters in chocolate?

No, sometimes I just drizzle the chocolate over the top or skip it entirely for a lighter, fruity snack.

Can I make these with frozen strawberries?

I’ve tried, but fresh strawberries work better because they hold their shape and don’t release as much water. Frozen berries tend to make the yogurt runny.

How do I keep them from sticking to the tray?

I always use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. It makes it easy to lift the clusters without breaking them.

Conclusion

Chocolate strawberry yogurt clusters are simple, sweet, and perfect for keeping in the freezer as a healthier treat. I love how quick they are to throw together and how customizable they can be. Whether I’m in the mood for something refreshing or something indulgent, these clusters always do the trick.
