Ingredients
Yogurt Base
- 2 cups Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1 cup Chopped strawberries
Chocolate Topping
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the yogurt mixture from sticking during freezing.
- Mix the yogurt base: In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring the flavors are well blended.
- Spread yogurt mixture: Pour the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and evenly spread it out, creating a uniform layer about 1/4 inch thick for easy portioning later.
- Add strawberries: Sprinkle the chopped strawberries evenly over the spread yogurt layer, ensuring each cluster will have a balanced amount of fruit.
- Melt chocolate topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil together in short intervals, stirring frequently until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Drizzle chocolate: Pour the melted chocolate over the yogurt and strawberries, swirling it gently to create an attractive marbled effect on top.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow it to freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the yogurt bark is firm and set.
- Serve: Once frozen solid, break the yogurt bark into bite-sized clusters and enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for later snacking.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor.
- To ensure smooth melting, stir chocolate and coconut oil frequently while microwaving in 15-20 second bursts.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and ensure chocolate chips are vegan.
- Store leftover clusters in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 1 week to maintain freshness.
- Feel free to swap strawberries for other berries or chopped fruit as per your preference.
