Method
- Prepare the Pan: Line your 13x9-inch casserole dish with parchment paper, allowing some to hang over the sides. This will act as a handle for easy removal later.
- Ready the Berries: Gently wash and pat dry the fresh strawberries. Remove the hulls and slice them into quarters. Set them aside.
- Create the Yogurt Base: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, agave nectar, vanilla extract, and the pinch of sea salt. Whisk with the spatula until the mixture is completely smooth and uniform.
- Assemble the Bark: Pour the yogurt base into the center of your prepared pan. Using the spatula, spread it out evenly towards the edges, aiming for a consistent thickness of about ¼-inch.
- Garnish and Set: Artfully distribute the quartered strawberries over the yogurt base, pressing them in slightly. Sprinkle the dark chocolate shavings and optional hemp hearts evenly across the top.
- Deep Freeze: Carefully transfer the dish to the freezer. Let it freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until the bark is completely solid and hardened through.
- Portion and Serve: Once solid, use the parchment paper overhangs to lift the entire slab from the dish. Place it on a cutting board and break it into approximately 22 irregular, snack-sized pieces. Serve immediately.
Notes
Tips & Storage
Storage
Store the bark pieces in a freezer-safe zip-top bag or an airtight container.Place sheets of wax paper between layers to prevent them from sticking together.

Ingredient Swaps
- This recipe is very flexible! Try using raspberries or blueberries in place of strawberries.
- For a different flavor twist, add 1 tsp lemon zest or a dash of cinnamon to the yogurt base.
Pro Tip
For the creamiest result, use whole-milk Greek yogurt; lower-fat versions can turn icier.Make sure your freezer is set to 0°F / -18°C for a quick, solid freeze.
