Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt (choose full-fat for creaminess or low-fat for a lighter version)

3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract for flavor

1 cup dark chocolate chips or finely chopped dark chocolate

1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced

¼ cup chopped nuts (pick from almonds, pistachios, or walnuts for a pleasing crunch)

Sea salt flakes for garnish (optional, but highly recommended)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the plain Greek yogurt, followed by the honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract. Using a whisk or spatula, stir the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.

    Spread the Yogurt: Take a baking sheet (approximately 9x13 inches) and line it with parchment paper for easy removal. Pour the yogurt mixture onto the lined baking sheet, using a spatula to spread it evenly. Aim for a thickness of around ½ inch, which provides the perfect base for toppings.

      Add the Toppings: Generously scatter the sliced strawberries over the surface of the yogurt layer, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Next, sprinkle the dark chocolate chips and the chopped nuts across the top, making sure to disperse them well throughout for a delightful mix in every bite.

        Melt the Chocolate (Optional): If you prefer a rich, melted chocolate experience, place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat them in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Drizzle this melted chocolate over the yogurt and toppings, creating a beautiful marbled effect if desired.

          Freeze the Bark: Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the freezer. Allow the bark to freeze for about 2 to 3 hours, or until it becomes completely firm and set.

            Break into Pieces: Once fully frozen, remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Gently lift the edges of the parchment paper to pull the bark off the sheet. Use your hands or a sharp knife to break the bark into irregular pieces for a rustic presentation.

              Serve: Just before serving, consider sprinkling sea salt flakes on top of the pieces for an irresistible sweet-and-salty contrast that elevates the flavors.

                Storage: Store any leftover bark in an airtight container in the freezer, where it will remain fresh for up to 2 weeks. Whenever you're in the mood for a refreshing treat, simply grab a piece!
