Ingredients
Scale
Fruit
- 2 cups fresh seedless grapes, washed and dried
Dipping
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1 cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips or melting chocolate
Instructions
- Prepare the Grapes: Start by thoroughly washing and drying the seedless grapes to ensure no moisture interferes with the coating. Removing excess water is essential for the yogurt to stick properly.
- Coat Grapes with Yogurt: Dip each grape into the Greek yogurt, making sure it is completely covered. You can gently roll the grapes in a bowl of yogurt or use a spoon to coat them evenly.
- Freeze Yogurt-Coated Grapes: Place the yogurt-coated grapes on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Put them into the freezer for at least 2 hours or until fully frozen and firm.
- Melt the Chocolate: While the grapes freeze, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring in between until smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler on the stovetop for gentle melting.
- Dip Frozen Yogurt Grapes in Chocolate: Using a fork or skewer, dip each frozen yogurt-coated grape quickly into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off before returning the clusters to the parchment paper.
- Final Freezing: Once all grapes are dipped, place them back into the freezer for 10-15 minutes to set the chocolate coating completely.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately as a refreshing frozen treat or store them in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Use seedless grapes for easier eating and better texture.
- Greek yogurt offers a creamy texture and adds protein to the snack.
- Choose dark chocolate for a richer flavor and antioxidant benefits.
- Ensure grapes are completely dry before yogurt coating to prevent the yogurt from sliding off.
- These clusters are best enjoyed within one week when stored properly in the freezer.
- For added fun, sprinkle crushed nuts or coconut flakes on the chocolate while it’s still wet before freezing.
