What You’ll Need
For the Chocolate Frozen Yogurt:
- 2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup dark chocolate, finely chopped
For the Raspberry Swirl:
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons honey or sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pro Tips
✔ Use full-fat yogurt for the creamiest texture—low-fat versions get too icy.
✔ Chop the chocolate finely so it blends in smoothly and doesn’t feel chunky.
✔ Sweeten to taste—raspberries can be tart, so adjust the honey as needed.
✔ Let it sit for a few minutes before serving for the perfect scoopable texture.
✔ Blend the yogurt well to make sure the cocoa powder is fully mixed in.
Tools You’ll Need
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Small saucepan
- Blender or food processor

Substitutions & Variations

Make Ahead Tips
- You can make the raspberry sauce a day in advance and store it in the fridge.
- Freeze the yogurt mixture in individual portions for easy snacking.
How to Make It
Step 1: Make the Raspberry Swirl
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the raspberries, honey, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down and form a thick sauce. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Step 2: Blend the Chocolate Yogurt Base
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, heavy cream, honey, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and fully combined. Stir in the finely chopped dark chocolate.
Step 3: Layer & Swirl
Pour the chocolate yogurt mixture into a freezer-safe container. Spoon the cooled raspberry sauce on top in small dollops, then use a knife or skewer to gently swirl it into the yogurt.
Step 4: Freeze & Serve
Cover the container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm. Let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping and serving.
Leftovers & Storage
🍦 Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
🍦 Let it thaw for a few minutes before scooping—it gets firm!
🍦 Blend leftovers into a smoothie for a chocolate raspberry shake.
