Vanilla Frozen Yogurt

July 16, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 11 Comments

Hidy Ho Everyone,

I’m officially back from my trip, however I am writing this in advance since I get in so late on Sunday.  I have been dabbling in making frozen yogurt.  I bought my machine about a month ago and I love and hate it!!  I figured I would share my experience with you to see what you think and if you have ever used an ice cream maker.

When I first make the ice cream it is so creamy smooth that I could eat a whole carton.  But then it happens! I put it in a freezer safe container and butta bing butt a doo, it turns out rock hard!  I leave it on my counter for an hour or longer to soften up, but it’s still pretty hard.  The first night I made ice cream, I let it sit on my counter for 4 hours, it finally soften up and I ate most of it!  I couldn’t help it, it was good!!


I can’t give credit to anyone in particular for this recipe, since I seen it on all sorts of sites and blogs.  I made vanilla frozen yogurt.  It was pretty simple.  I used Chobani plain yogurt, 1/2 cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.  It was very, very good!  After this ice cream, I also did the same thing, but added peanut butter and another time I added cherries.  I love it!! I just hate the frozen part of it.  I want to learn more about make ice cream making because I would love to make all sorts of flavors!

Have you ever made frozen yogurt?  How was your take on it?  I love it because of the taste of course, but the nutritional stats are wonderful, way better than store-bought.  Who can beat 108 calories for a half a cup and 9 grams of protein and no fat?  Now I know regular ice cream contains egg yolks, heavy cream and lots of sugar, but I can’t do that!  Ice cream is one of those treats that I want more of, so the healthier it is, the better off I am.

    Welcome home! It’s always good to be back on USA soil again, isn’t it? Hope your trip was wonderful! This yogurt looks wonderful – a tiny bit of some type of alcohol will keep the ice cream or yogurt from getting so hard. It’s not enough to have any effect when distributed through the ice cream.

    So would you or would you not recommend this as a good homemade ice cream recipe? You mentioned it doesn’t thaw out correctly at all, which would totally put a damper on things!

      If you plan on eating it all tonight to serve to others, I highly recommend it. If your planning placing it in the freezer for a later use, I’d try it, but leave it on the counter for about an hour to two hours to soften up. Once it softens it’s perfect! I read that using 2% yogurt works better, but I haven’t tried that yet. This recipe was on several websites and everyone seems to like it. I like the tastes, I just don’t have the patience to wait for it to defrost.

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….

My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
