Bark, also known as frozen yogurt bark, is a popular, healthy snack made by spreading yogurt on a baking sheet and topping it with fruits, nuts, and other mix-ins before freezing until solid and breaking it into pieces. It typically uses Greek yogurt as a base, combined with ingredients like berries, granola, chocolate chips, or seeds.
