For the Greek Yogurt Bark:
- 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
Optional Toppings:
- 1 medium banana, sliced
- 2 tbsp graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tbsp chopped nuts
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside, ensuring a non-stick surface for the bark.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey (or maple syrup) until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Spread Mixture: Evenly spread the yogurt and peanut butter mixture onto the lined baking sheet, creating a consistent layer as the base of your bark.
- Melt Chocolate: Warm the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring between each until fully melted and smooth.
- Swirl Chocolate: Spoon dollops of the melted chocolate over the yogurt mixture and gently swirl it in using a toothpick or similar tool to create a marbled effect.
- Add Optional Toppings: Sprinkle sliced banana, graham cracker crumbs, and chopped nuts over the swirled mixture for added texture and flavor, if desired.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until the bark is completely hardened.
- Cut and Store: Once frozen, cut the bark into pieces of your preferred size. Transfer the pieces to a freezer-safe bag and store them in the freezer for up to one month. Enjoy chilled!
Notes
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup to make the recipe vegan-friendly.
- For a nut-free version, omit the peanut butter and nuts, and use sunflower seed butter instead.
- The bark can be customized with additional toppings such as dried fruit, seeds, or shredded coconut.
- Make sure to freeze for a full 4 hours or longer to ensure the bark hardens properly.
- Store bark in an airtight container or freezer bag to prevent freezer burn and maintain freshness.
