These chocolate covered raspberries are a delightful bite-sized treat! Sweet little raspberries coated in a layer of Greek yogurt and then chocolate, they come together easily with only four ingredients! Keep them ready to go in the freezer to satisfy your sweet tooth!
Inspired by Tru Fru Nature’s Raspberries, these chocolate covered raspberries are a delicious homemade alternative you can make in bulk to enjoy throughout a couple of months.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
- It’s very easy to make! Dip the raspberries in yogurt and then in chocolate and voilà, you’ve got yourself chocolate covered raspberries!
- They’re a little healthier than store-bought. Swapping the white chocolate later for yogurt makes these a little more nutritious.
- They last in the freezer for quite a while, so it’s easy to prep a big batch to enjoy slowly.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- raspberries — I always give my berries a good wash before drying thoroughly before I start this recipe. This helps the berries keep longer.
- Greek yogurt — I use full-fat vanilla yogurt. Feel free to swap out the yogurt for another flavor. Lemon and honey yogurt are another two flavors that I like to use as well.
- chocolate chips — you can use your favorite chocolate chips. I’m using semi-sweet chocolate chips. Dark chocolate chips are a great option, too.
- coconut oil — combining the chocolate chips with coconut oil helps create the chocolate magic shell that coats the raspberries.
How to Make Chocolate Covered Raspberries
- Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Using a toothpick or fingers, dip each raspberry into the yogurt until evenly coated and place onto the parchment.
- Freezer for 30 minutes or until the Greek yogurt has hardened.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave on high in 20-second increments, stirring in between until the chocolate is fully melted.
- Dip each yogurt covered raspberry into the melted chocolate and place back on the parchment lined sheet pan. Place back in the freezer until chocolate has set. When frozen, enjoy or transfer to a freezer-safe bag to store in the freezer.
Recipe Tips and Notes
- Look for bright and uniformly colored berries. Avoid dull, dark, wrinkled, or dried-out raspberries.
- I’m not a fan of using frozen raspberries because, a lot of times, they’re frozen in chunks in the bag that are difficult to pry apart.
- You can stir add-ins into the yogurt! A bit of honey, cinnamon, peanut butter, etc makes for a tasty addition.
- Make sure to get the Greek yogurt into the cavity of the raspberries. This way, you get a nice pop of Greek yogurt when you bite into the raspberries.
Storage Tips
- Once the chocolate covered raspberries have set in the freezer, transfer them to a freezer-safe container like these Stasher bags so you can grab a couple out to enjoy whenever the craving hits. Don’t keep them out in the freezer uncovered on the sheet pan for too long, as they can absorb the scents from the freezer.
- Keep the raspberries in the freezer for up to 3 months.
For sure! You can use strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries for this recipe!
