Two trays of chocolate-dipped pretzel bark topped with colorful sprinkles and nuts sit on a pink tiled surface, surrounded by bowls of sprinkles, slivered almonds, chopped nuts, pretzels, and protein frozen yogurt bark pieces.

Frozen yogurt bark is such a great little protein snack. Topping them with Kindling’s High Protein Pretzels just takes it to another level! Take high protein greek yogurt, add a little chocolate and whatever your favorite toppings are and freeze it for an hour or two and you have a frozen, delicious, high protein treat. I mean, it doesn’t get any better or easier!

Assorted ingredients for protein frozen yogurt bark in bowls on a pink surface, including chopped peanuts, Greek yogurt, protein powder, honey, chocolate chips, churro protein pretzels, slivered almonds, and shredded coconut.

Non-Fat Greek Yogurt: I used 0% but you can use 2% or 5% for a richer bark. You can also play with flavors, vanilla being a fan favorite in my house.
Vanilla Protein Powder: I like usig PEScience Gourmet Vanilla or Chocolate Truffle. Use code OHSNAP to save.
Honey: or pure maple syrup to sweeten. This is purely optional but helps if your protein powder isn’t sweet enough.
Kindlings Churro Protein Pretzels: any type of pretzel but these protein pretzels are great.
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips: bittersweet or milk chocolate. This depends on how sweet you like your chocolate.
Coconut Oil: this gets mixed with the chocolate chips to create a rich creamy layer that hardens.

Variations

Toppings for days, my friends: sprinkles, chopped peanuts, shredded coconut, slivered almonds, etc.
I love adding my peanut butter syrup during the second freeze too to switch it up!

How to make this Protein Frozen Yogurt Bark (a step-by-step visual guide):

Step 1: make yogurt bark base

In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and protein powder until you have a frosting-like consistency (image 1). Taste and add honey if needed to sweeten, this will vary based on the type of protein your using (image 2).

Side-by-side images: Left, a white bowl with yogurt, protein powder, and the start of protein frozen yogurt bark. Right, the mixture is smooth and creamy with a spoon on top. Both bowls sit on a pink surface.

Step 2: add base to baking sheet

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, I like to use a half sheet and make the yogurt layer thick. Spread the yogurt mixture on the parchment paper (image 3). Top the yogurt with the pretzels, either whole of broken into pieces and place in the freezer for at least one hour to harden (image 4).

Step 3: add the chocolate layer and toppings

Once the yogurt layer is hard, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a small bowl and microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring each time until fully melted and combined (image 5). Spread over the yogurt and pretzel layer (image 6). Add your favorite toppings (image 7) and return to the freezer to harder for another 30-60 minutes (image 8). Here we have two topping ideas pictured! When ready to enjoy, remove from the freezer, break into pieces and enjoy. I typically break this into 6 large chunks which is reflected in the nutrition information.

Expert Tip!

Be sure to give it the proper freeze time to ensure a real bark. Taking it out too early will make your bark fall apart and become too soft.

Rectangular pieces of white crackers topped with melted chocolate and colorful sprinkles are arranged on a parchment-lined tray, resembling a playful twist on protein frozen yogurt bark. Whole pretzels and crumbs add extra crunch around the treats.
