Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and rinsed

1 cup Greek yogurt (choose plain or your favorite flavored variety)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (can substitute with milk chocolate for extra sweetness)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (to create a smoother melted chocolate)

1/4 cup crushed nuts or colorful sprinkles for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Strawberries: Start by rinsing the strawberries under cool water. Gently pat them dry with a paper towel, ensuring they are completely dry, which helps the yogurt adhere more effectively.

    Make the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter flavor. Use a whisk or spatula to mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the yogurt bites later on.

        Coat the Strawberries: Dip each strawberry into the yogurt mixture, making sure they are fully coated. Allow any excess yogurt to drip off and carefully place the coated strawberries on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

          Freeze the Yogurt Coated Strawberries: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the strawberries freeze for about 1 to 2 hours, or until the yogurt is firm to the touch.

            Melt the Chocolate: While the strawberries are freezing, take a microwave-safe bowl and add the dark chocolate chips along with the coconut oil. Heat the mixture in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well in between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and glossy.

              Dip in Chocolate: Retrieve the frozen yogurt-coated strawberries from the freezer. One by one, dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back on the parchment paper.

                Add Garnish (if desired): If you like, sprinkle crushed nuts or colorful sprinkles on top of the chocolate while it is still wet. This adds a delightful crunch and enhances the visual appeal of your treats.

                  Final Freeze: Return the strawberries to the freezer for another 30 minutes, allowing the chocolate to fully set and harden.

                    Serving and Storage: Once the chocolate coating is firm, serve the chocolate-dipped strawberry yogurt bites immediately or store them in an airtight container in the freezer, where they will stay fresh for up to a week.
