I've whipped up this frozen yogurt bark since back when my kids claimed they're "too mature" for popsicles but couldn't give up something frosty and sweet as an afternoon pick-me-up. One hot summer, huddled by the freezer to escape the heat, I wondered if our favorite yogurt parfaits could be changed into a snack with a fun new twist. That trial became this frozen goodie that everyone asks for almost every week.
Just last week, instead of cookies, my daughter's pal wanted the "frozen yogurt thing." It's funny how the treats kids ask for end up being the most popular, sometimes even beating out the classic sweets.
Dreamy Essential Ingredients
- Creamy Greek Yogurt: Go for the richest one for that perfect texture
- Juicy Berries: Whatever’s almost too soft or looking awesome at the store
- A Little Honey: Just enough to mellow out the sharpness
- Awesome Extras: Get wild—sprinkle with coconut, nuts, chocolate chips, or granola

Fun Way to Make Your Bark
- Let’s Freeze:
- Slide your tray into the freezer for three hours or so. I like doing this after lunch because it’s perfect by snack time.
- Put on Toppings:
- Add berries and whatever you’ve picked for toppings, pressing them just lightly into the yogurt. Don’t push too hard or everything will disappear underneath.
- Smooth it Out:
- Grab a sheet pan with parchment, then spread your yogurt mix on about a quarter inch thick. Too thin and it’ll crack, too thick and you’ll wait ages for it to freeze.
- Mix Time:
- Stir yogurt in a bowl, squeeze in honey (or maple if that’s your thing), and taste along the way.
