Healthy Chocolate and Strawberries

Indulge in a healthy chocolate and strawberries treat that’s both delicious and feel-good. This quick recipe satisfies sweet cravings without the guilt. No baking, no fuss, just simple ingredients and fresh flavor.

Needed: A Healthy Dessert That Still Feels Like A Treat

My girlfriend is always saying she needs to stop eating my treats because I’m constantly making her test my “experiments.” I wanted to come up with a healthier dessert for her – something easy, with Nutella and strawberries, but all my ideas (stuffed berries, mixing in Cool Whip) just didn’t feel quite right.

This Healthy Chocolate Dip Started as a Total Accident

We had a little vanilla Greek yogurt left in the fridge, so I swirled in some Nutella just to see. And just like that, Healthy Chocolate and Strawberries was born! It’s fresh and delicious, and much healthier than your typical dip. In fact, one little Chobani Greek yogurt has 16g of protein – much better for you than chocolate sauce, wouldn’t you say?

It’s been a go-to in our house ever since. It’s the perfect after school snack, fruit and dip for a special occasion, or a late-night treat when you’re craving something sweet but light. It tastes like chocolate-covered strawberries but with less work and way better ingredients!

What to Serve with Delicious Chocolate Dip

I am a total sucker for all things strawberry! You all know that my favorite dessert of all time is strawberry shortcake, so I always default to strawberries or anything berry.

But you don’t have to just dip strawberries in this chocolate yogurt dip. Here’s a list of great options for dipping in this yogurt Nutella dip:

• Strawberries
• Raspberries
• Bananas
• Apples
• Pretzels
• Nilla Wafers
• Graham Crackers

NOTE: If you like a little texture in your chocolate fruit dip, toss a few mini chocolate chips in it.

Ingredients for Healthy Chocolate and Strawberry Recipe

You only need 2 ingredients for this healthy chocolate fruit dip! It’s so simple, the kiddos could even make it on their own. Here is what you need:

• Vanilla Greek Yogurt: Creamy, high in protein, and lightly sweet. Use your favorite high-quality brand for the best flavor and nutrition, we love Chobani.
• Nutella: Adds rich chocolate-hazelnut flavor with just the right amount of sweetness. (Tip: Costco sells the big jars!)
• Fresh Strawberries: Juicy, sweet, and loaded with antioxidants. Use ripe berries and serve at room temp for the best flavor.

You can scale this recipe up for a crowd or down for a quick, healthy snack. Thanks to the Nutella, there’s no need for cocoa powder – it’s plenty chocolatey all on its own!
