I love these Chocolate Cherry Frozen Yogurt Bon Bons because they are rich, cool, and simple to make. I use creamy black cherry yogurt, cover it with a smooth chocolate coconut shell, and freeze everything into bite-sized treats.
Ingredients
(Tip: You'll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
¼ cup extra virgin coconut oil, measured solid then melted
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
20 to 30 liquid stevia drops
½ heaping cup black cherry yogurt
Directions
I mix melted coconut oil, cocoa powder, and stevia in a small bowl until smooth.
I fill each section of a small heart-shaped candy mold or silicone ice cube tray with about 2 teaspoons of yogurt, filling each cavity a little over three-quarters full.
I carefully spoon 1 to 2 teaspoons of the chocolate mixture over the yogurt until it is fully covered.
I freeze the bon bons for 1 hour, or until fully set.
I remove them from the mold and serve them immediately while frozen.

Variations
I sometimes use strawberry, raspberry, or vanilla yogurt instead of black cherry yogurt. I can also use maple syrup or honey instead of stevia, though the chocolate shell may taste slightly different.
For extra texture, I like adding finely chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or mini chocolate chips over the chocolate layer before freezing.
Storage/Reheating
I store these bon bons in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 2 weeks. I place parchment paper between layers so they do not stick together.
I do not reheat them because they are meant to be served frozen. I let them sit for 1 to 2 minutes at room temperature before eating if they are too firm.
FAQs
Can I use regular yogurt?
Yes, I can use regular yogurt, but thicker yogurt works best because it freezes with a creamier texture.
Can I make these without a heart-shaped mold?
Yes, I can use a silicone ice cube tray or any small silicone candy mold.
Can I use a different sweetener?
Yes, I can use another sweetener, but I add it slowly and taste the chocolate mixture before freezing.
Why do the bon bons need to stay frozen?
I keep them frozen because the yogurt softens quickly and the coconut oil chocolate shell melts at room temperature.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, I like making them ahead and storing them in the freezer until I am ready to serve.
Conclusion
I love these Chocolate Cherry Frozen Yogurt Bon Bons as an easy frozen dessert with a creamy cherry center and smooth chocolate coating. They are simple, portion-controlled, and perfect when I want a cool homemade treat.
