  2. 1½ cups chopped strawberries
  3. 1 cup Greek yogurt
  4. 1 tbsp honey
  5. 1 tsp vanilla extract
  6. Stir well to coat the strawberries in the yogurt mixture.

  2. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop 1–2 tbsp of the mixture onto the tray into small mounds.
  3. Repeat until all mixture is used.

Step 3. Make the Chocolate Coating

  2. 1 cup chocolate chips
  3. 2 tbsp coconut oil
  4. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted. (About 90 seconds total.)
