FAQ
Can I use different fruits?
Yes! Try banana slices, blueberries, pineapple, or raspberries for variety.
How do I prevent the chocolate from cracking?
Make sure the yogurt coating is completely frozen before dipping into chocolate.
Can I store these in the fridge instead of the freezer?
For the best texture, store in the freezer. The fridge will cause the yogurt to soften too much.
