- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla powder
- 1 tsp Knox gelatin, bloomed in 1 tbsp cold water
- 1/3 cup ChocZero dark chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 tsp refined coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberries: Hull the strawberries and blend them until smooth, then press the puree through a fine sieve to ensure a silky texture.
- Cream the cheese: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it’s impeccably smooth and lump-free.
- Combine ingredients: Add the Greek yogurt, allulose, ground flaxseed, and vanilla to the cream cheese, and beat until creamy.
- Incorporate the strawberry: Gently fold the prepared strawberry puree into the creamy mixture.
- Bloom the gelatin: Sprinkle the Knox gelatin over 1 tablespoon of cold water, allowing it to bloom for about 2 minutes.
- Melt the gelatin: Using a double boiler, gently warm the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
- Temper the gelatin: Whisk 2 tablespoons of the strawberry-cream mixture into the melted gelatin.
- Combine: Quickly pour the tempered gelatin back into the main bowl, folding until everything combines.
- Fill the molds: Divide the strawberry mixture into your silicone molds, inserting sticks into each.
- Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer for at least 6 hours or overnight until solid.
- Unmold: Carefully remove the bars from the molds and return them to the freezer for an additional 15 minutes.
- Chocolate coating: Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil, stirring until smooth, then cool slightly before spooning over each bar.
- Set and serve: Let the chocolate set for about 2 minutes before serving.
