Fluffy Yogurt Berry Sundaes (Printable Version)

Creamy yogurt and fresh berries layered with dark chocolate shavings for a light, refreshing dessert.

# What You'll Need:

→ Yogurt Mixture

01 - 2 cups Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
02 - 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
03 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

→ Berries

04 - 2 cups mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
05 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
06 - 1 tablespoon sugar, optional

→ Toppings

07 - 1.5 ounces dark chocolate, shaved or finely chopped
08 - Fresh mint leaves, optional for garnish

# Directions:

01 - In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whip with a whisk or hand mixer for 1 to 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
02 - In a separate bowl, gently toss mixed berries with lemon juice and sugar if using. Let sit for a couple of minutes to release juices and develop flavor.
03 - Divide half of the whipped yogurt mixture evenly among four serving glasses or bowls.
04 - Spoon half of the macerated berries over the yogurt layer in each glass.
05 - Top with remaining yogurt mixture, followed by remaining berries, distributing evenly across all four servings.
06 - Top each sundae with dark chocolate shavings and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent without any of the heaviness that usually comes with dessert.
  • Ten minutes is all you need, which means you can serve something beautiful even on rushed weeknights.
  • The tartness of berries playing against creamy yogurt and bitter chocolate feels like a small luxury.
02 -
  • If you whip the yogurt too aggressively or too long, it can separate and lose that fluffy texture—aim for just until it's noticeably lighter, then stop.
  • Room-temperature yogurt whips better than cold, so pull it from the fridge a few minutes early if you have time.
03 -
  • Freeze your serving glasses for five minutes before assembling—the cold keeps everything perfect longer and feels luxurious.
  • If your chocolate is cold and brittle, let it sit at room temperature for thirty seconds before shaving so it curls instead of crumbles.
