Chocolate Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bark Recipe
Satisfy your peanut butter cup cravings with one bite of this simple Chocolate Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bark. A healthy treat that everyone will love!
If you love healthy desserts or just a sweet snack, this is the one you will want if you love peanut butter cups. There is plenty of peanut butter flavor, and a nice dose of melted chocolate drizzled over the top. Plus, you can eat it straight from the freezer!
Is Yogurt And Nut Butter Healthy?
As a mix, you bet! As long as there is no added processed sweetener, it’s a perfectly healthy treat! (Providing you don’t have a nut allergy…)
Can You Mix Peanut Butter And Yogurt?
As a flavor pairing, absolutely! But if you are referring to physically mixing the two, just get out your best whisk or blender and you’ll have it mixed together in no time.
Can You Use Foil For Yogurt Bark?
I caution against it. While it will certainly work, the problem is when a fold or wrinkle freezes into the yogurt, it can easily tear. This can leave a piece of foil behind in the frozen yogurt bark. Not something you want to swallow, I promise. So it’s best to stay away from foil when making yogurt bark.
How To Eat Frozen Yogurt Bark?
One bite at a time! Once you’ve broken your frozen yogurt into bark pieces, you simply pick up a piece and bite it. This is the main reason you want to keep your fruit pieces on the small side.
How Long Does It Take To Freeze Yogurt Bark?
Whether you use Greek yogurt or plain yogurt, in both cases, you’ll want to freeze it for at least 5 hours or overnight.
Recipe Variations
High Protein – Add a scoop or two of protein powder. Either unflavored, chocolate, or vanilla.
Sugar-Free – If you want to avoid adding sweetener, simply blend in a banana or two to sweeten things up.
Extra Chocolate – Add 1 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder.
Extra Toppings – Sprinkle some granola over the top.
Mix Up Flavors – Try topping this with cashews, pecans, or almonds instead of peanuts. Even chopped, fresh strawberries would be a yummy topping for this. And actually, any fresh berries will work. Even blueberries!
Nut Butter – Try different nut butter like almond butter or cashew butter.
About The Ingredients
Plain yogurt – You can use plain Greek yogurt, regular yogurt, or even dairy-free yogurt.
Chocolate chips – Opt for dark chocolate chips or sugar-free chocolate chips. (I use either the Lily’s brand which is stevia sweetened, or the Whole Foods Sugar-Free chocolate chips which are similar. – Not paid to promote either one.)
Sweetener – This can be maple syrup, honey, Sucanat, coconut sugar, or monk fruit. And while I give you a measurement for the recipe below, you really just want to sweeten it to taste before freezing. Just be generous because it won’t taste as sweet once frozen.
Natural peanut butter – This is simply peanut butter that only has peanuts listed in the ingredients list, and maybe some salt. Nothing else.
Chopped peanuts – For the topping.
How To Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bark
In a blender, combine the peanut butter, sweetener, and yogurt.
Blend until smooth and fully combined.
In the microwave, melt the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until the chocolate is completely melted.
Pour the yogurt mixture out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. (Don’t skip the parchment paper or you’ll never get the bark off the pan!)
Spread it evenly over the parchment. It’s okay if it doesn’t touch the corners. Just make it even all the way across.
Drizzle on the melted chocolate using a spoon.
Sprinkle with chopped peanuts.
Put it in the freezer for a minimum of 6 hours. Overnight is best.
Separate the edges from the sheet pan with a knife or metal spatula.
Peel the parchment off the back of the bark.
Transfer the bark to a cutting board and cut it into chunky pieces and enjoy.
Storing Chocolate Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bark
Store this in an airtight container and keep it in the freezer. Do not store this in the fridge or let it thaw. Enjoy it straight from the freezer, like you would with ice cream.
