Once your Greek yogurt mixture is prepared and the coffee grounds and sweetener are well incorporated, it’s time to bring it all together. Start by pouring the yogurt mixture onto a lined baking sheet. A parchment paper lining is essential, as it prevents the yogurt from sticking and allows you to easily lift the bark once it’s frozen. Use a spatula to spread the yogurt evenly across the baking sheet, ensuring a uniform thickness of about 1/4 inch. This will help the bark freeze consistently, leading to a satisfying texture.

Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla based on preference)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste for desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup dark chocolate chips (or your favorite dairy-free chocolate chips)

1/2 cup coffee beans, coarsely chopped

A pinch of sea salt

Optional toppings: crushed nuts, dried fruit, or shredded coconut for added texture and flavor

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract. Whisk or stir until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated.

    Line the Baking Pan: Take a baking sheet (approximately 9x13 inches) and line it with parchment paper. This will provide a non-stick surface, making it easier to remove the bark once it has frozen.

      Spread the Yogurt Mixture: Carefully pour the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. With a spatula, spread the mixture evenly to achieve a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Aim for a smooth, even layer for consistent freezing.

        Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the dark chocolate chips in the microwave. Do this in 15 to 30-second bursts, stirring well after each interval until fully melted and silky smooth.

          Drizzle and Sprinkle: Using a spoon or a piping bag, gently drizzle the melted chocolate over the yogurt layer, creating a zigzag pattern. Next, evenly sprinkle the coarsely chopped coffee beans and a pinch of sea salt over the top. If desired, scatter optional toppings like crushed nuts, dried fruit, or shredded coconut for an extra burst of flavor.

            Freeze the Bark: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the mixture to freeze for at least 3–4 hours or until it is completely set and firm to the touch.

              Break Into Pieces: Once the bark is fully frozen, remove it from the freezer. Lift the entire sheet of bark out by grabbing the edges of the parchment paper. Transfer it to a cutting board and break it into irregular bite-sized pieces using your hands or a sharp knife.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately for maximum crispiness, or place the pieces in an airtight container and store them in the freezer for future cravings. Enjoy this delicious and refreshing treat any time you need a sweet pick-me-up!
