Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla flavor for sweetness)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for natural sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (adds depth of flavor)

1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for a rich chocolate taste)

1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreos)

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (for extra chocolatey bites)

Pinch of salt (to enhance the flavors)

Additional crushed cookies for topping (optional, for extra crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, blend the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

    Incorporate the Cookies: Gently fold the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies into the yogurt mixture, making sure to leave some larger chunks intact for added texture. Next, fold in the mini chocolate chips, combining everything carefully.

      Prepare the Pan: Take an 8x8-inch square baking dish and line it with parchment paper, letting the edges hang over the sides to facilitate easy removal once frozen.

        Spread the Mixture: Pour the prepared yogurt-cookie mixture into the lined baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly, smoothing the top for a clean finish.

          Add Toppings: If you like, crumble additional chocolate sandwich cookies over the top of the mixture. Gently press them down into the yogurt mix for a delightful crunchy topping.

            Freeze the Bars: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a secure lid. Transfer it to the freezer and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until the mixture is completely firm.

              Slice and Serve: When the bars are fully frozen, remove them from the pan by lifting out the parchment paper. Cut into squares or bars using a sharp knife. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer until you’re ready to enjoy.
