Instructions
1. Prepare the mixture
In a bowl, combine chopped strawberries with yogurt and sweetener. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.
Make sure the strawberries are cut into small pieces so the clusters hold together better.
2. Form the clusters
Using a spoon, place small portions of the mixture onto a tray lined with baking paper.
Shape them into small clusters, keeping them slightly compact.
3. Freeze
Place the tray in the freezer for at least 1–2 hours, or until the clusters are fully solid.
4. Melt the chocolate
Melt the dark chocolate (with coconut oil if using) in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth.
5. Coat the clusters
Dip each frozen cluster into the melted chocolate or drizzle chocolate on top.
6. Freeze again
Place them back in the freezer for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
7. Serve
Enjoy straight from the freezer for the best texture.
