Ingredients
- 150 grams dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa, low-fat option)
- 200 grams low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 100 grams fresh strawberries
- 10 leaves mint leaves
Directions
Step 1
Begin by breaking the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
Step 2
Melt the chocolate gently using a microwave at medium power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth. Alternatively, you can melt it over a pot of simmering water using the double-boiler method.
Step 3
Once melted, use a small spoon to coat the insides of six silicone muffin cups with the melted chocolate, reserving a small amount for drizzling later. Ensure the layer is even and not too thin to form a solid cup.
Step 4
Transfer the chocolate-coated cups to the refrigerator and allow them to set for about 10 minutes or until firm.
Step 5
While the chocolate cups are setting, prepare the filling by mixing the low-fat Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and honey in a bowl until smooth and well-combined.
Step 6
Wash the strawberries and pat them dry with a paper towel. Hull and slice them into thin pieces.
Step 7
Once the chocolate cups are firm, carefully peel away the silicone molds.
Step 8
Fill each chocolate cup with a generous amount of the yogurt mixture, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon.
Step 9
Top each filled cup with sliced strawberries and a few mint leaves for garnish.
Step 10
If desired, drizzle the reserved melted chocolate over the top of the cups for an added decorative touch.
Step 11
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
