Ingredients
  

2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt

1 ½ cups fresh raspberries

1 cup almond slivers (unsalted)

2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan alternative)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon lemon juice

A pinch of salt

Optional: ½ cup dark chocolate chips (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Raspberry Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, gently mash the fresh raspberries using a fork or potato masher. Add in the honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything gently until combined, ensuring some raspberry chunks remain for texture.

    Combine Yogurt and Raspberry Mixture: In a separate large bowl, stir the vanilla Greek yogurt to smooth it out. Carefully fold in the raspberry mixture with a spatula, creating swirls throughout the yogurt. Be cautious not to over-mix; you want to retain visible swirls of raspberry.

      Prepare the Almonds: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the almond slivers evenly on a baking sheet. Toast them in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes. Keep a close watch to prevent them from burning; they should be golden and fragrant. Once done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool.

        Assemble the Clusters: Line another baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the raspberry yogurt mixture and place them onto the parchment. Top each dollop with a generous sprinkle of the toasted almond slivers, gently pressing them into the yogurt to ensure they adhere well.

          Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the clusters to freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until they are completely solid.

            Optional Chocolate Drizzle: If you opt for the chocolate drizzle, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth and fully melted. Once the yogurt clusters are firm, drizzle the melted chocolate over each cluster for an added layer of flavor. Place the baking sheet back in the freezer for an additional 30 minutes to set the chocolate.

              Serve: Once you’re ready to enjoy your Raspberry Almond Bliss Bites, remove them from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly. Enjoy these delicious bites right away, or store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks for a sweet treat anytime.
