Method
-
Mix the dip
Stir the yogurt, whey, cocoa and maple syrup together until smooth and glossy.
Start with a spoonful of yogurt and the powders, then add the rest. No lumps.
-
Rinse the strawberries
Rinse the strawberries and pat them dry, leaving the green tops on as handles.
Dry berries hold the dip. Wet ones let it slide off.
-
Dip and eat
Serve the strawberries next to the dip.
Chill the dip for 10 minutes and it thickens like chocolate mousse.
Common mistake
Skipping the sweetener. Cocoa is bitter on its own; the maple balances it.
Storage
The dip keeps 2 days in the fridge, covered.
