Are you looking to eat better in the new year? If so, this recipe is for you. Fresh red, ripe, sweet, Florida strawberries are in season NOW (December through April) and perfect in this good-for-you recipe. Did you know that just 8 Florida strawberries provide more vitamin C than one orange? Yup, it's true!Florida strawberries are also an excellent source of folic acid. Folic acid helps your body metabolize protein. In addition to providing folic acid, they are also a good source of potassium. But, nutrition aside, you'll want to eat Florida strawberries because they taste awesome! They're sweet and delicious this year and you can find them in markets all over the country right now! (If you don't see them in your store, request your store carry them!)
So why not take all the goodness Florida strawberries have to offer and transform them into this easy-to-make wholesome and delicious Frozen Strawberry Chocolate Yogurt Bark? It's perfect for dessert or a healthy snack anytime!
Tips for making Frozen Strawberry Chocolate Yogurt Bark
- Make sure you use whole milk Greek yogurt to get the creamiest bark. You still may get ice crystals, but not as many as you would get with lower fat content yogurt.
- Freeze only until it is firm. This will allow you to be able to cut the bark more easily. If too hard, let the bark sit out and defrost a bit before attempting to cut it.
- Too cold for a frozen dessert? Make this bark into a delicious parfait by spooning the sweetened yogurt into a dessert glass and topping with strawberries and chocolate!
- Pump up the strawberry flavor by adding half the strawberries to the lightly sweetened yogurt and blending them for a few minutes, then spread out on prepared baking sheet and top with the rest of the strawberries and chocolate!
Frozen Strawberry Chocolate Yogurt Bark
Fresh Florida strawberries top lightly sweetened Greek yogurt topped with dark chocolate for a wholesome sweet treat!
Ingredients
- 3 cups plain WHOLE MILK Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey or agave (or more to taste)
- 1 package of fresh Florida Strawberries, sliced
- 4 oz. of your favorite dark chocolate, melted
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the honey and the whole milk Greek yogurt.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet (I used a quarter sheet pan) with parchment, allowing it to hang over the edges. Spread the yogurt mixture onto the parchment paper, pushing it to the edges to create a "bark"
- Top bark with sliced strawberries, pushing them down into the yogurt slightly. Drizzle with melted chocolate.
- Freeze for several hours or until firm. Cut into pieces. Serve immediately.
