Our newest obsession: Yogurt bark

 

White chocolate bark is incredible, but sometimes it's nice to have a healthier alternative. Make these yummy treats when you want breakfast on the go, or when you're in need of a sweet tooth curing snack after a long day of studying.

Note: The great thing about all these recipes is you can add whatever ingredients you want. Suggestion? Try adding fresh fruit and granola to your yogurt. It’ll be like a breakfast parfait, but frozen!
