Ingredients
  

2 cups cream cheese, softened at room temperature

1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat for creaminess

1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and diced into small pieces

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs, plus extra for garnish if desired

Pinch of salt

Optional: dark chocolate chips or a drizzle of white chocolate for extra flair

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese, sifted powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.

    Incorporate Yogurt: Gently fold in the Greek yogurt with a spatula, mixing carefully until the ingredients are fully integrated and the mixture is light and fluffy. Set this aside while you prepare the strawberries.

      Prepare the Strawberries: In a separate bowl, combine the diced strawberries with one tablespoon of powdered sugar. Toss them gently to coat; the sugar will help to release some of the strawberries' natural juices, enhancing their flavor. Let them sit for about 5 minutes.

        Spread the Mixture: Line a baking sheet or a flat tray with parchment paper, ensuring that it hangs over the edges for easy removal later. Pour the cream cheese and yogurt mixture onto the lined tray. With a spatula, spread it into an even layer, about 1/2 inch thick.

          Layer the Strawberries and Crumbs: Evenly distribute the sweetened strawberries over the cream cheese layer, spreading them out gently. Next, sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs uniformly on top, ensuring every bite will have some texture and crunch.

            Add Optional Toppings: For a special touch, feel free to sprinkle dark chocolate chips or a drizzle of white chocolate over the top. This adds an indulgent element to your frozen bark.

              Freeze Until Set: Carefully place the tray in the freezer. Allow it to freeze for a minimum of 4-6 hours or until it’s completely solid. For best results, overnight freezing is recommended.

                Cut and Serve: Once fully frozen, lift the bark out of the tray using the parchment paper overhang. Break it into pieces or cut it into squares with a sharp knife. Serve immediately, or store the pieces in an airtight container in the freezer, where they will remain fresh for up to two weeks.

                  Prep Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 6 hours (includes freezing) | Servings: 12 pieces

                    Presentation Tips: For a beautiful touch, arrange the frozen bark pieces on a serving platter and garnish with additional diced strawberries or a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs for visual appeal.
