Ingredients You’ll Need
It’s amazing how just a handful of simple ingredients can come together to create something so delightful! Each component plays a unique part, bringing texture, flavor, and that signature frosty crunch to these clusters.
- Fresh strawberries: The star of the show, these add bright color and natural sweetness to every bite.
- Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla): This provides a creamy, tangy base that balances the sweetness and keeps the clusters satisfying.
- Honey or maple syrup: Just a little touch brings out the natural flavors and adds a gentle, wholesome sweetness.
- Vanilla extract: Enhances the flavor and brings a warm, cozy aroma to the yogurt filling.
- Dark chocolate chips: These melt down into a luscious coating that adds richness and turns every bite into a treat.
- Coconut oil: Helps the chocolate melt smoothly and gives the coating that snappy, glossy finish.
How to Make Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters
Step 1: Mix the Strawberry Yogurt Filling
Start by combining your diced strawberries, creamy Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and a dash of vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Stir everything really well, making sure those juicy berries are evenly coated and the sweetener is fully mixed in. This becomes your fruity, tangy base—a flavor pairing that never disappoints!
Step 2: Form the Clusters
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Using a spoon, drop mounds of the strawberry yogurt mixture onto the sheet, making each cluster about two bites big. Don’t worry about making them perfect—the rustic look is part of their charm (but silicone molds work wonders if you’re aiming for uniform treats).
Step 3: Freeze Until Firm
Pop the tray into your freezer and let the clusters set for about 1 to 2 hours. You’ll know they’re ready when they’re firm to the touch. This step is key, so resist the urge to shortcut it: dipping frozen clusters keeps the chocolate from sliding off and creates that signature snappy outer shell.
Step 4: Prepare the Chocolate Coating
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until everything is melted and smooth. The coconut oil makes the chocolate perfectly fluid and easy to work with, plus it helps the outer shell set up beautifully in the freezer.
Step 5: Dip and Re-Freeze
One by one, dip your frozen clusters into the melted chocolate, swirling to coat. Let any excess drip off, then place each coated cluster back onto the lined tray. When all are coated, freeze for another 15–20 minutes so the chocolate sets firm. You’ll want to sneak one right away, but they’re even better when fully chilled!
How to Serve Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters

Garnishes
For an extra-special touch, sprinkle your clusters with a little flaky sea salt or a dusting of freeze-dried strawberries just before the chocolate sets. Chopped pistachios or shredded coconut add even more color and crunch—making these feel like little works of art.
Side Dishes
Pair your Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters with a fresh fruit platter or alongside a frosty smoothie bowl. If you want to turn snack time into a full dessert experience, serve with mini shortbread cookies or a fruity sorbet on the side—your taste buds will be in heaven.
Creative Ways to Present
Stack the clusters in a pretty glass jar, line them up on a dessert board with fresh berries, or nestle each in a cupcake liner for easy sharing at parties. If you’re gifting, a small box wrapped with ribbon makes these Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters an unforgettable homemade present.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
After your clusters are set, transfer them to an airtight container and tuck them back in the freezer. They’ll stay fresh and delicious for up to two weeks—perfect for those moments when your sweet tooth strikes unexpectedly.
Freezing
Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters actually become even better when frozen! They hold their shape, taste, and texture best at freezing temperatures, so always store them in the freezer. Lay wax paper between layers to prevent sticking if you’re stacking them.
Reheating
Since these are a frozen treat, there’s no need to reheat! Simply let the clusters sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes before eating if you prefer them a bit softer, but they are absolutely delightful straight from the freezer as well.
FAQs
Can I use other fruits instead of strawberries?
Absolutely! Blueberries, raspberries, or even chopped mango work beautifully here. Play with the flavors and see what you love best—just make sure to dice the fruit small for easy mixing and scooping.
What type Snack, Dessert
While dark chocolate offers a lovely balance to the tart yogurt and sweet berries, milk chocolate or even white chocolate can add a sweeter, creamier twist. Use your favorite or experiment with a blend for a fun variation!
Are these clusters gluten-free?
Yes, this recipe is naturally gluten-free because none of the ingredients contain gluten. Just double-check any packaged chocolate or flavorings you use to be sure they’re certified gluten-free as well.
Can I use non-dairy yogurt to make these vegan?
Definitely! Substitute the Greek yogurt for a thick, plant-based yogurt and use maple syrup instead of honey. Pair with dairy-free chocolate chips, and you’ll have a vegan-friendly treat everyone can enjoy.
How do I make the clusters uniform in size?
If you want perfectly shaped treats, a silicone mold or a small cookie scoop is your best friend. They help your Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters look neat and uniform—ideal for parties or gifting!
Final Thoughts
There’s something joyfully irresistible about a batch of freshly made Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters. Cool, creamy, and chocolatey, they’re the kind of snack you’ll want to keep in your freezer all summer long (and let’s be honest, probably all year). I hope you fall in love with them as much as I have—give them a try and let their irresistible flavor win you over!
