A quick and easy high-protein snack combining creamy Greek yogurt, dark chocolate, and mixed berries, perfect for snacking or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 3 ounces (85 grams) dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher), roughly chopped or chips
  • 1 cup (150 grams) mixed berries (fresh or frozen blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries)
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) chia seeds (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons (15 grams) slivered almonds or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Yogurt Base: In a mixing bowl, stir together 2 cups (480 ml) of Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
  2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  3. Spread the Yogurt: Pour the yogurt mixture onto the lined baking sheet and spread evenly into a rectangle about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick using a rubber spatula.
  4. Add Toppings: Sprinkle 3 ounces (85 grams) chopped dark chocolate, 1 cup (150 grams) mixed berries, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) chia seeds, and 2 tablespoons (15 grams) slivered almonds or walnuts evenly over the yogurt layer. Press gently to stick.
  5. Freeze Until Firm: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Break and Serve: Lift the bark out using the parchment paper and break into irregular pieces. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.

Notes

Use thick Greek yogurt for best results; strain runny yogurt if needed. Press toppings gently into yogurt to prevent falling off. Freeze overnight for best firmness. Store in airtight container in freezer up to 2 weeks. Let sit 5 minutes at room temperature before breaking. Avoid thawing too long to keep crisp texture.
