Ingredients

  • 1 cup (250g) Greek yogurt (full-fat)

  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream

  • 2–3 tbsp honey or maple syrup

  • Vanilla extract, for extra flavor (optional)

  • Strawberry puree for berry swirl variation (optional)

  • Cocoa powder for chocolate variation (optional)

  • Mango puree for tropical variation (optional)

  • Granola for topping (optional)

  • Coconut cream for dairy-free version

  • Dairy-free yogurt for dairy-free version

  • Pinch of salt, if desired

  • Fresh berries for serving, if desired

  • Extra honey for drizzling, if desired

Directions

  • Whip the cream: Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Meanwhile, be careful not to overwhip so the texture stays smooth and airy.
  • Mix yogurt and sweetener: In another bowl, mix yogurt and honey until smooth and creamy.
  • Combine gently: Fold the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture until light and airy. Because the texture matters here, keep the folding gentle.
  • Freeze: Transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 2–3 hours. As a result, it becomes softly frozen while still staying scoopable.
  • Scoop and serve: Let sit for a few minutes if needed, then scoop like soft ice cream and enjoy. Finally, add berries, granola, or extra honey if desired.

    Chef’s Tips for Perfect Results

    • Don’t overmix. Therefore, the mixture keeps its airy structure and stays beautifully mousse-like once frozen
    • Use full-fat yogurt for creaminess. Meanwhile, richer ingredients help create a smoother and more indulgent texture
    • Add vanilla or berries for extra flavor. As a result, you can easily change the dessert while keeping the method simple
    • Freeze just enough for a soft texture. Because over-freezing can make it firmer, a shorter freeze keeps it light and scoopable

    Equipment

    • Mixing bowl
    • Hand mixer or whisk
    • Freezer-safe container
    • Spatula or spoon

    Storing, Freezing & Serving

    • Storing: Store in the freezer for up to 1 week; however, keep it well covered so the texture stays fresh and creamy
    • Freezing: Freeze only until softly set, because that’s what gives this dessert its signature cloud-like texture
    • Serving: Let sit for a few minutes before scooping so it softens slightly and becomes easier to serve
    • Presentation: Meanwhile, serve in soft scoops with berries, granola, or a drizzle of honey for a simple but elegant finish

    Variations

    • Berry swirl: Add strawberry puree for a fruity and colorful ripple
    • Chocolate version: Mix in cocoa powder for a richer and more indulgent flavor
    • Tropical version: Add mango puree for a bright and sunny variation
    • Crunchy finish: Add granola on top for texture and contrast
