Ingredients

  • 3 cups whole-milk plain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups sliced strawberries
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Step 2: In a medium bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  3. Step 3: Spread the yogurt mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a 10-by-15-inch rectangle.
  4. Step 4: Evenly scatter the sliced strawberries over the yogurt, then sprinkle the mini chocolate chips on top.
  5. Step 5: Freeze the bark until it is very firm, at least 3 hours or overnight for best results.
  6. Step 6: Once frozen, remove from the freezer and break or cut into 32 pieces. Serve immediately or keep frozen until ready to enjoy.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra crunch, sprinkle chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios over the yogurt before freezing.
  • Swap strawberries for other berries such as blueberries or raspberries to change the flavor.
  • Use flavored Greek yogurt, like vanilla or strawberry, for a sweeter or fruitier bark.
  • Press the chocolate chips lightly into the yogurt to help them stick better during freezing.

Storage

Store the yogurt bark in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. When ready to eat, simply remove the desired amount and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before serving.
