Description

A creamy and delicious Greek yogurt-based ice cream that you can customize with your favorite toppings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 32 ounces full fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the yogurt, cream, sugar, and vanilla extract (if using) vigorously. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. (Test this by rubbing it slightly with your fingers to see if it’s gritty, then taste).
  2. Freeze the yogurt mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Depending on your ice cream maker, freeze for 2 to 3 hours for a scoopable consistency.
  3. Alternatively, you can freeze the base in silicon ice cube-sized trays for 3 hours, then pop out the cubes and blend in a food processor until smooth. Add a splash of cream if necessary to blend. (If you freeze overnight, allow the cubes to soften at room temperature for about 20 minutes.)
  4. Add the toppings of your choice! Try sprinkles, fresh strawberries or raspberries, strawberry compote, edible cookie dough, and more.

Notes

  • Ensure the mixture is well combined and smooth before freezing.
  • Customization options are endless, so feel free to experiment with different toppings.
