Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust according to desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

1/2 cup crushed peanut butter cups (store-bought or homemade)

Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and creamy peanut butter. Add the honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt if using. Using a whisk, blend together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring everything is well incorporated. Take a moment to taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more honey or syrup if desired.

    Line the Baking Tray: Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Opt for a baking sheet that measures approximately 9x13 inches. Be sure to leave some parchment paper hanging over the edges; this will make it easier to lift out the yogurt bark later.

      Spread the Yogurt Mixture: Carefully pour the yogurt mixture onto the lined baking sheet. Using a spatula, spread it out evenly, aiming for an even thickness of about 1/2 inch across the surface.

        Add Toppings: Sprinkle mini chocolate chips and the crushed peanut butter cups evenly over the yogurt mixture. Gently press them into the surface with your fingertips to ensure they adhere and won't fall off when served.

          Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer. Allow the yogurt bark to freeze for at least 4 hours or until it is completely set and firm throughout.

            Cut and Serve: Once the bark is set, remove it from the freezer. Using the overhanging parchment paper, lift the yogurt bark out of the baking sheet. Cut it into squares or break it apart for a more rustic presentation.

              Store: Transfer the cut pieces to an airtight container. Store in the freezer for a deliciously refreshing treat ready to enjoy straight from the freezer!
