This is a Halloween spin on my original frozen yogurt bark recipe that’s so simple, quick, and easy to make! Sometimes you just want something sweet without going full-on candy overload. This frozen yogurt Halloween bark is the answer. Stir together Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla, a little lemon juice, and a pinch of salt, then spread it out on a baking sheet. Add all the fun stuff – candy corn, pretzels, Oreos, Reeseโ€™s Pieces, whatever youโ€™ve got – and freeze it until firm. Break it apart and snack away. Itโ€™s creamy, crunchy, and just the right amount of spooky.

Recipe FAQs

What other toppings can I add to my Halloween bark?

There are so many fun toppings to add to your Halloween yogurt bark! Here are some suggestions:

  • Melted chocolate drizzle
  • Peanut butter chips or chocolate chips.
  • Chopped nuts, like almonds or shelled pistachios.
  • Salty potato chips instead of pretzels for that salty touch and added crunch.
  • M&Ms instead of Reese’s pieces.
  • Chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups instead of Reese’s Pieces.
  • Leftover Halloween candy bars that are all chopped up.
  • Spooktacular candy eyeballs (you can find candy eyes this time of year in most grocery stores).
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Gummy worms
  • Graham crackers
  • Dried or fresh fruit and berries like my original frozen yogurt bark.

Can I make vegan Halloween bark?

Yes, you can! You’ll need to use dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup rather than honey. Then, top it with your favorite vegan-friendly Halloween treats from the long list above. Enjoy!

Can I make this yogurt bark for other holidays?

Absolutely! For Christmas, think red and green M&Ms or crushed candy canes. For the 4th of July, opt for red and blue M&Ms and lots of red and blue sprinkles.
