Cherry Chocolate Chip Frozen Yogurt

July 23, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 27 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I had a recipe I was so excited to share with you today, but it will have to wait!  I made something else that was so amazing that I just can’t stand it!!  I have no patience to wait to share it with you, so I am posting it today.

This is my Cherry Chocolate Chip Frozen Yogurt.  It is creamy, soft, not hard and tastes out of this world.  The best part?  No ice cream maker needed!  I put this all together in minutes, threw it in the freezer and in about an hour I got this soft and delicious ice cream.


Besides it’s creamy goodness, it’s LOW calorie!  I used 1 cup Chobani plain Greek Yogurt, 5 cherries, 1 tsp. of  mini chocolate chips and 3 drops of vanilla stevia.  In comparison to frozen yogurt that you get at the store, the serving size is a 1/2 cup, mine is one cup!  The protein is 22 grams and the fat is 1.4 grams due to the chocolate chips.  I am so happy with this I could just scream!  I scream, you scream, we all scream for healthy frozen yogurt!  So geeky I know, but I’m so darn excited!  Finally an easy frozen yogurt!

Whats nice is you can make a one person serving of any flavor you desire.  Not like using an ice cream maker where you normally have to make a pint or quart, you can make as much of any kind of frozen yogurt you desire.  What I did, when I was getting ready to serve dinner, in a freezer safe container, I added all my ingredients and popped in the freezer, that’s it.  By the time I relax and clean-up, my frozen yogurt is ready.  I am so loving this!!!  Just think of all the flavors you could make?  The possibilities are endless!!  You can even use your favorite flavored frozen yogurt instead of plain!!

If I were you, I’d make an investment in yogurt because I”m going to be buying it more then I do now and that’s crazy!!  I got the idea from Gina from Running to the Kitchen.  She made a wonderful frozen peach yogurt and I used her idea and went from there.  You can check out her way of doing it here.

Cherry Chocolate Chip Frozen Yogurt
 
Save Print
Prep time
2 mins
 
A healthy, creamy, no ice cream maker needed, frozen yogurt made with fresh cherries and chocolate chips.
Serves: 1 Cup
Ingredients
  • 1 cup greek yogurt plain
  • 5 cherries, pitted and cut into quarters
  • 3 drops Vanilla Stevia
  • 1 tsp.mini chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. In a shallow freezer safe dish; add yogurt, cherries, chocolate chips and stevia drops. Mix until combined.
  2. Place in a freezer for an 1 hour or until frozen, but slightly soft
  3. Remove from freezer and mix with a spoon until all pieces of yogurt are broken up. At that point the ice cream will have softened. Eat and enjoy!
Notes
If you do not have vanilla liquid Stevia, I would add about ¼ tsp. of vanilla extract or use vanilla greek yogurt and I would add just a pinch of sugar. Taste test it before putting it in the freezer.

I hope you like today’s recipe as much as I do.  I really wish I could tell you as soon as I make it!  I know, I’m crazy and I get so excited over food, but come on, it’s a healthy one cup serving of ice cream!!!  You can’t go wrong with that!!  I have another one in the freezer right now.  So guilt-free that I am having two today.  But this one is different then the last one.  So be prepared for crazy frozen yogurt recipes in the near future!

Have a great day!!

Toodles!

Jennifer

P.S.  I didn’t know Culinary.net was having my recipe for Brussels Sprouts and Bacon on Friday.  If you want to check it out you can go here.

    This looks delicious! Do you think it would work with regular, non-fat yogurt? I have a large container of the Dannon plain, and would love to try it with that.

      Yes, It will work with regular and non-fat yogurt. Try it, I’m sure you will love it! Remember after an hour of freezing it, mash it with a spoon until all the yogurt pieces are broken up. The yogurt will soften up while mashing. If you feel the yogurt is to soft, just place it back in the freezer for a few minutes. Enjoy!!!

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!

Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden f Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden from last year. I’m gearing myself up to start working in the garden this weekend. It’s supposed to be mid 70’s. So if all goes planned you will be seeing quite a few gardening posts. 
🌺
Last years extreme summer heat took a major toll on my garden. I lost quite a few plants. 😫 For some reason I lost my Butterfly Bush. I plan on adding another one in the same spot. A lot of my lower flowers like Hummingbird Mint and my Coneflowers didn’t survive. We will be looking at the sprinkler system to make sure the plants are getting enough water. 
🌺
At least this garden is mainly annuals, so it should fill up with some color soon. I’m unsure what to do with my other gardens as my dogs have destroyed them. They keep on digging in the dirt. Maybe I should get them a sandbox to play in?
🌺
Have you started to work in your garden?

🐾
The boys will do anything to get on the bed, especially when you put on the @downlitebedding. I know you have heard me say it before, but they love there Downlite Bedding comforters and pillows. I have never seen 2 dogs get so excited.

We are all cozied up with the new Renew Comforter. It’s so soft and fluffy and not super heavy which is great for Spring weather. The comforter is 100% organic, 300 thread count with Lockshift baffle box construction and is machine washable!!
