Ingredients For Yogurt Bark

This Chocolate Berry Yogurt Bark is healthy and packed with flavor. Let’s break down the ingredients that make it so irresistible…

• Chocolate Chips: Melted and swirled throughout the bark for rich chocolate flavor. We used semi-sweet, but milk chocolate, white chocolate or dark chocolate would all be good.
• Greek Yogurt: Vanilla Greek yogurt creates a creamy, lightly sweet base.
• Fresh Berries or Fresh Fruit: We used blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries, but see below for more ideas!

With just chocolate, creamy Greek yogurt, and fresh berries, you’ve got a snack that’s as pretty as it is delicious!

Other Mix-Ins & Toppings

This yogurt bark is easy to customize, so feel free to get creative with mix-ins and toppings.

Try adding sliced bananas, fresh strawberries, mango, or cherries for more fruit flavor. 

Granola, chopped nuts, cookies, sprinkles, or coconut flakes add great crunch, while chia seeds, pepitas, or hemp hearts bring a little extra nutrition.

You can also swap the chocolate swirl for white chocolate, drizzle with honey or pure maple syrup, or sprinkle on crushed pretzels for a sweet-salty twist. Mix and match to make it your own.

How to Make Yogurt Bark

Making this yogurt bark is easier than you think! A few simple steps and you’ll have a colorful, chocolatey treat ready to chill.

• Melt: Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each round, until smooth. Let cool slightly so it doesn’t melt the yogurt.

• Top: Sprinkle the fresh berries evenly over the yogurt.

Why Our Muddy Buddies are Better

Listen, I have some issues with other recipes for puppy chow- too little clumping of peanut butter globs, too much or too little powdered sugar. Ugh, I want to indulge. I want to FEEL the heaviness of peanut butter goodness as clusters stuck together!

The Many Names of Puppy Chow

My mom and sister and I are in a group text and tonight’s text thread was about “muddy Buddies” vs “Puppy Chow”. I don’t know if it was a Pacific Northwest thing or an Idaho thing (that’s where my mom is from), but we call this treat “Puppy Chow.” Always have, always will. But the truth is, it has other names, like muddy buddies, monkey munch, dog food, Chex mix, but no matter what you call it, it’s delicious.

Our daughter and her friends make this recipe almost monthly making it a favorite in our household, (except for our famous GOOEY Peanut Butter M&M Cookies). I CANNOT stop eating either one!

Double Peanut Butter Muddy Buddies Recipe Ingredients

• Creamy Peanut Butter: The star flavor! It coats the cereal, giving it that rich, nutty taste and helps the other ingredients stick together. Peanut butter also adds smoothness and makes the mix more satisfying.
• Butter: Adds richness, a little extra flavor, and helps thin the peanut butter so it coats the cereal more evenly without clumping.
• Peanut Butter Chips: Boost that peanut butter flavor even more and give the muddy buddies a creamy, candy-like coating when melted with the peanut butter.
• Rice Chex Cereal: The crunchy base that holds everything together. Its light, crisp texture makes the perfect vessel for soaking up the peanut butter coating without gettin

I can’t think of a more popular holiday party snack than Muddy Buddies, made with Chex cereal coated in a chocolate, peanut butter and powdered sugar. But have you had our dark chocolate muddy buddies? The secret isn’t in chocolate chips, it’s actually in the peanut butter!

Ok, the 2 questions I always have to ask:
Did you grow up calling this addicting snack “muddy buddies”, or “puppy chow?” 

And 

Did you mix in a bowl or a large ziploc bag?

My siblings and I grew up saying puppy chow, but I mostly call it muddy buddies now. My mom would make a big batch, throw powdered sugar in a ziploc, add the chocolatey cereal and we would take turns shaking the snack to coat it in the powdery deliciousness. We couldn’t wait to dig in!

Ingredients for Dark Chocolate Muddy Buddy Recipe

• Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter & Co Spread: This is your main flavor powerhouse, combining intense dark chocolate with creamy peanut butter. It coats the cereal, binding the mix together and delivering a rich, slightly bitter-sweet taste that balances the sugar. 
• Butter: Adds richness and helps thin the chocolate mixture so it flows smoothly over the cereal. It also gives a softer bite and helps the coating stick. 
• Semisweet Chocolate Chips (or Peanut Butter Chips): Boosts the chocolate (or peanut butter) flavor and helps create a firmer coating once cooled. Semisweet chocolate adds sweetness without being too sugary, while peanut butter chips give a more nutty, creamy twist.
• Rice Chex Cereal: The crunchy, airy base. Its hollow squares trap the coating, creating little pockets of chocolate-peanut-butter goodness while staying crisp under the sugar. Corn Chex can also be used.
• Powdered Sugar: Creates that signature powdery, sweet coating. It also keeps the pieces from sticking together and adds a pleasant sweetness to contrast the darker chocolate. 
• Cinnamon Sugar: Adds warmth and a subtle spiced aroma that deepens the chocolate flavor.

How to Make Dark Chocolate Muddy Buddies

1. Melt: Add the dark chocolate spread, butter and chocolate chips to a microwave-safe medium mixing bowl and melt in 30 second intervals stirring frequently until creamy. You can also melt it over medium heat in a saucepan on the stove.
2. Coat: Add the cereal to a large bowl&nb
