Looking for a refreshing and healthy frozen treat to enjoy during warm weather? These Chocolate Cherry Yogurt Bites are the perfect blend of creamy, fruity, and chocolatey goodness! Easy to make, naturally sweetened, and bursting with flavor, they’re an ideal snack for kids and adults alike. Plus, they’re made with simple ingredients you probably already have at home!
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and finely chopped
- 1 cup of your favorite yogurt (dairy or non-dairy works well)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or raw honey (for natural sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup cacao nibs (adds crunch and antioxidants)
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips, melted (for that rich chocolate drizzle)
- Flaky sea salt (optional, for a gourmet touch)
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, chopped cherries, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and cacao nibs. Stir well until everything is evenly mixed.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a spoon to drop small clusters of the mixture onto the sheet, shaping them into bite-sized mounds.
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the bites freeze for at least 1 hour, or until they are firm.
- Once frozen, remove from the freezer and drizzle melted dark chocolate over the top of each yogurt bite for a decadent finish.
- Return the bites to the freezer for another 10–15 minutes, allowing the chocolate to set completely. If you love a touch of savory contrast, sprinkle a little flaky salt on top before serving.
Pro Tip: Store these frozen yogurt cherry clusters in an airtight container in the freezer. They’re perfect for grabbing on the go or satisfying late-night cravings in a healthier way!
