Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate chips (optional for extra fudginess)
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt and unsweetened cocoa powder. Stir well until the mixture becomes smooth and no lumps of cocoa remain.
Add in the honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until the dip is creamy and evenly flavored.
If you prefer a thicker and richer dip, melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Let the melted chocolate cool slightly, then fold it into the yogurt mixture.
Taste the dip and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a little more honey or maple syrup.
Transfer the fudgy fruit dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately with your favorite fresh fruits such as strawberries, apple slices, banana coins, or pineapple chunks.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
