Tips from the Test Kitchen
I Don’t Have Whole-Milk Plain Greek Yogurt. Can I Use Another Type?
We use full-fat Greek yogurt to ensure the creamiest bark possible, but feel free to use other yogurts, like fat-free, low-fat, traditional and dairy-free. If using other types of yogurt, the bark will have an icier, less creamy texture, but it will still be delicious. Make sure to use plain yogurt to reduce the amount of added sugar to the recipe.
Can I Add Different Toppings?
Yes, you can! Try different fruits, like raspberries, blueberries or sliced bananas. You can add your favorite chopped nuts, coconut chips or granola for some crunch. Swirl in some nut butter, melted chocolate or jam for another layer of flavor. Please note that additional toppings will alter the nutritional profile of the recipe.
Can I Make the Bark Thinner?
If you prefer a thinner yogurt bark, divide the yogurt mixture between two large rimmed baking sheets. Scatter the strawberries and chocolate chips evenly between the two baking sheets. A thinner yogurt bark will be crisp but can melt faster, so be sure to serve it quickly from the freezer.
