Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and finely diced

1 ½ cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla based on preference)

¼ cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste for desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup dark chocolate chips (or use dairy-free chocolate chips for a vegan option)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (essential for melting chocolate smoothly)

A pinch of sea salt to enhance flavor

Optional toppings: crushed nuts, coconut flakes, or colorful sprinkles for added flair

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberry Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced strawberries with Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir well until the strawberries are evenly incorporated throughout the yogurt. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup if preferred.

    Form the Truffles: Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out the yogurt mixture and carefully roll it into balls between your palms. Arrange the formed truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You should yield approximately 20-24 truffles, depending on the size you choose.

      Freeze the Truffles: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the truffles to freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until they become firm to the touch.

        Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Be careful to avoid overheating the chocolate, as this can cause it to seize.

          Coat the Truffles: Once the truffles are frozen and firm, remove them from the freezer. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip back into the bowl. Place the coated truffles back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.

            Add Toppings: Before the chocolate sets, feel free to sprinkle crushed nuts, coconut flakes, or vibrant sprinkles over the chocolate-coated truffles for a decorative touch and added texture.

              Final Freezing: After all the truffles have been coated, return them to the freezer for about 30 minutes to ensure the chocolate is fully set.

                Serve: Once the chocolate has hardened, transfer the truffles to an airtight container and store them in the freezer. These delightful treats can be enjoyed directly from the freezer, offering a deliciously refreshing snack!
