Pour the chocolate mixture into a quart-size resealable bag, seal the bag, then cut a tiny tip from the corner.

Stir in ½ tablespoon milk at a time to the remaining Greek yogurt mixture, to thin as needed. There should be about 1 cup left.

Pour into a quart-size resealable bag, cut a tiny tip from the corner, and carefully pour over the chocolate layer filling each about another ⅓ full. Freeze for 5 to 10 minutes.

Pour the strawberry mixture over the vanilla layer, filling each mold nearly full. Insert the popsicle sticks and cover with lid, then freeze for about 3 to 5 hours until set.
