Frozen Yogurt Cookie Dough Protein Bark
This frozen yogurt bark is a viral recipe made with a yogurt base. Easy to make and fun to eat, this yogurt bark is the perfect, cool and refreshing treat. I love that it's loaded with protein from the yogurt and protein powder, and is only minimally sweetened with dates. So easy to whip up and healthy.

Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup thick Greek-style yogurt
- 1/2 cup dates, soaked 30 minutes and drained
- 1/4 cup protein or collagen peptides powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
Chocolate Topping
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- In a food processor, process almond flour, yogurt, dates, protein powder and vanilla extract. Only process until a thick pancakelike batter is formed.Fold in the mini chocolate chips.Spoon the cookie dough (batter) into a parchment-lined rectangular cookie sheet about ½ inch thick. Leave a few inches around the edges. It does not have to be perfectly level.Place in the freezer for about an hour to firm up.
Chocolate Topping
- Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in small dish and microwave with 20 second bursts stirring between each one until melted and smooth.Or use double boiler method - (pot of boiling water with a bowl resting on top) melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil together.Pour the melted chocolate into the center of the chilled cookie dough, and spread it around with a spoon gently so it doesn't swirl in, just sits on top. Leave a bit of a border of cookie dough so the chocolate doesn't drip over the edge.Put the pan level in the freezer, uncovered for 4 hours or longer until it feels solid enough to break into chunks, not bendable.Store leftovers in the refrigerator for a week or frozen for about 3 months.
