Videos of viral frozen yogurt bark have been taking the internet by storm – and for good reason. It’s easy, quick, and makes a nutritious treat. However, I’ve been making these little bites for months now and can’t get over them!

They are quick to whip up, taste like an indulgent treat, are nutritious, and are perfect for an easy, healthy snack. Make a big batch of these bites and keep them on hand for weeks for easy, grab-and-go protein snacks! Each bite packs 15 grams of protein. They are made with the realest and simplest ingredients, yogurt and protein powder (this acts as a “flour” to the bars and helps the ingredients stick together), cashew butter and sweetened with a little bit of honey.

I always have some protein snacks on hand during the week. I love adding protein powder to homemade bars, energy balls, muffins, and desserts. It’s such an easy way to boost the protein content and help make them more filling. These bars make a great snack, pre or post-workout snack, or even a healthy dessert. Everything about these yogurt protein bites is amazing.

Last but not least, a handful of rainbow sprinkles complete the protein bites. Everything comes together perfectly to create one out-of-this-world treat! Great for kids, parties, pot lucks and celebrations of all kinds!

I have a special place in my heart for no bake bars and desserts. They were the first kind of recipes I started experimenting with when I started making healthier treats. If you are an frozen treat lover like me, these are the snack for you! Ultra fudgy, chewy with sprinkles, these have it all!  After all, everything tastes better with sprinkles.

Why I love these homemade birthday cake yogurt protein bites:

They give you the birthday cake flavor but no baking is required!

Come together in about 20 minutes (10 minutes of that are them setting in the fridge) and are easy to make.

Wholesome ingredients. No hidden sugar – or worse, corn syrup! These protein bites are naturally sweetened, and free from nasty artificial ingredients.

They couldn’t be easier to make and are thrown together using good for you ingredients. Protein-rich, thick, Greek-style yogurt, creamy nut butter, delicious honey for a subtle sweetness along with your favourite protein powder to balance up the macro nutrients (protein, fat, carb ratio).

And, as always, you can easily customize the ingredients in this recipe to meet your needs, both from a dietary and preference standpoint! As well as being really easy to make, these protein bites are healthier than your average treat as they are made with wholesome REAL food ingredients. With the added protein powder it makes them more balanced than the traditional high carb recipe.

Old fashioned baked recipes always had tons of sugar, carbs and fats. The new modern way it to add protein making the recipe more balanced and healthy. Eating protein-rich foods has many health and fitness benefits, including:

Speeding recovery after exercise and/or injury
Reducing muscle loss
Building lean muscle
Helping maintain a healthy weight
Curbing hunger

A well-balanced diet with proper ratios of macro nutrients (protein, healthy carbs and fats) provides all of the: energy you need to keep active throughout the day. nutrients you need for growth and repair, helping you to stay strong and healthy and help to prevent diet-related illness. When you find your optimal balance and amounts of macro nutrients, you take a major step toward reaching your health goals and this balance has been improved in this recipe by the addition of healthy protein.

Your body can only absorb around 25-30 grams of protein at one time and you  likely need 100 plus grams a day so its important to spread it over all meals and snacks throughout the day so you can meet your required amount. It makes it easier to get your quota when you can eat it in a delicious and healthy treat like this recipe that is both indulgent and wholesome.  Each bite is a perfect balance of sweetness and creaminess, making these bites a favorite among both kids and adults.

Reader review: “OMG I’m so obsessed with these right now. I look forward to eating one (or two) after my workout each day. I thought I liked a number of well-known brand name protein bars, but now that I’ve made these I don’t even want to go back to buying protein bars because they are so inferior. I also feel really good knowing and seeing exactly what goes into them”.
