Strawberry Chia Chocolate Rounds
Easy no-bake frozen treats featuring fresh strawberries, chia seeds, and chocolate coating. Perfect for summer entertaining or healthy snacking.
Equipment
- Medium mixing bowl
- Fork
- Small microwave-safe bowl
- Tablespoon or small cookie scoop
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped strawberries fresh or thawed from frozen
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- ¾ cup chocolate chips dairy-free if needed
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, mash strawberries with a fork until juicy and broken down (small chunks are fine). Stir in maple syrup and chia seeds until well combined.
- Let mixture sit for 10-15 minutes so it thickens slightly as chia seeds absorb liquid.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of mixture and spoon onto sheet in small circles (about 2 inches wide). Repeat with remaining mixture.
- Freeze rounds for 1-2 hours, or until solid.
- Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together (microwave in 20-second intervals or melt on stovetop). Stir until smooth.
- Dip each frozen round halfway or fully into chocolate. Place back on parchment.
- Freeze again for 15-20 minutes until chocolate is set.
Notes
Use completely thawed frozen strawberries and drain excess liquid to prevent ice crystals
Let chia mixture rest exactly 10-15 minutes for perfect consistency
Chocolate should be warm but not hot when dipping frozen rounds
Store in airtight container in freezer for up to 2 weeks
Serve straight from freezer for best texture
