My Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are perfect for when you just need a little treat at the end of the day. Creamy yogurt mixed with fresh strawberries, swirled with chocolate and frozen atop a “crust” of granola, they’re a treat you’ll want in your freezer all summer long! (makes 4 "bites")

Ingredients

• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (full fat or 2%)
• ¼ cup dark chocolate chips
• ¼ cup diced fresh strawberries
• ¼ cup gluten free granola*

Instructions

1. Use a silicone cube tray (mine was 1.5” cubes). Drop 1 Tbs of granola into the bottom of 4 of the squares. Make sure it is in an even layer in the bottom.
2. Melt your chocolate chips. I microwaved mine in 30sec intervals until melted and smooth. Swirl a tiny bit of chocolate on top of the granola layer (I did this to add a binding layer of chocolate before the yogurt. I used maybe ½ tsp of chocolate per square.)
3. Next, in a bowl, stir together the yogurt and strawberries. Add almost all of the rest of the chocolate, reserving a couple teaspoons to use on top. Give the yogurt one or two quick stirs, so the chocolate swirls in but isn’t fully combined. Divide the yogurt among the 4 cubes on top of the granola layer, pressing it down as you fill so everything is compacting.
4. Finally, swirl on the last of the chocolate on top of the squares.
5. Freeze for a few hours, until firm. I froze mine for 4 hours before removing them.
6. Pop the cubes out of the mold and enjoy! You can keep extras in an air-tight freezer bag in the freezer.

Notes

*Use granola that doesn’t have fruit in it, like my Oatmeal Cookie Granola without the raisins or LOVE Grown Foods Cocoa Goodness Granola! I used a mix of both.
