Chocolate Strawberry Greek Yogurt (Printer-friendly)

Creamy Greek yogurt topped with fresh strawberries and melted dark chocolate for a quick, indulgent treat.

# What you'll need:

→ Yogurt Base

01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
02 - 1 tablespoon honey or pure maple syrup

→ Fresh Fruit

03 - 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

→ Chocolate Topping

04 - 1.75 ounces dark chocolate, 60-70% cocoa, chopped
05 - 1 teaspoon coconut oil

# Method:

01 - Combine Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup in a medium bowl. Whisk thoroughly until completely smooth and evenly incorporated.
02 - Divide the sweetened yogurt mixture evenly between two serving bowls or glasses, spreading it smoothly across the bottom.
03 - Arrange half of the sliced strawberries over each yogurt portion, distributing them evenly for attractive presentation.
04 - Place chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well between each burst, until completely smooth and glossy. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler over gently simmering water.
05 - Spoon the melted chocolate over the strawberries and yogurt in each bowl, creating an attractive drizzle pattern across the surface.
06 - Let the chocolate set for 1 to 2 minutes until it firms slightly against the cold yogurt. Serve immediately while chocolate retains slight snap and fruit remains fresh.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in literally ten minutes but tastes like you put real effort into it
  • You get that chocolate-covered strawberry satisfaction with way less sugar than the dessert version
  • The protein keeps you full for hours unlike regular desserts that leave you hungry again an hour later
02 -
  • Microwaving chocolate for more than 20 seconds at a time will seize it into a gritty unusable mess—I learned this the hard way once and had to start completely over
  • If your chocolate does seize try whisking in a teaspoon of coconut oil to rescue it though the texture might be slightly different
  • The chocolate sets faster on cold yogurt so work quickly once you start drizzling or you'll end up with clumps instead of those beautiful ribbons
03 -
  • Use the absolute best quality dark chocolate you can afford since it's the star of the show
  • Freeze your bowl for 10 minutes before assembly if you want extra cold yogurt that contrasts even more with the warm chocolate
