Mini frozen yogurt sandwiches

This recipe adds a little fun to your favorite frozen yogurt recipe. Who knew that placing a little frozen yogurt in between two cookies could make everything so much better?

Place a spoonful of your favorite yogurt on top of a gingersnap cookie and top that with another cookie.

That's it!

It may get a little messy but it doesn't get much easier than ready made cookies and yogurt. 

More frozen yogurt for the holidays

Much like the I mentioned in a recent post, there are frozen yogurt recipes that can be a successful desert no matter the time of year. 


This recipe for a roasted peach sundae is a perfect example of how to make froyo a winter dish. 

What you need: 

• 3 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
• 1 tsp brown sugar
• 2 tsps lemon juice
• 3 cups nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt
• 6 gingersnap cookies, crumbled

Now, here's what you do:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. Toss peach halves with brown sugar and lemon juice, and place them cut-side-up on the prepared baking sheet. 
3. Roast until the peaches are tender, 20 to 30 minutes. If the juice on the pan begins to burn, add a little water and loosely cover the fruit with foil.
4. Top each peach half with a 1/2-cup scoop of frozen yogurt and a sprinkle of crumbled gingersnaps. Serve immediately.

Frozen yogurt for the holidays

With the holiday season kicking off, frozen yogurt may not seem like the most appropriate dessert. However, a recipe like this Gingersnap-Banana yogurt, makes the dessert a good one all year round. 


The best part of this recipe, though, is that it already calls for frozen yogurt — meaning you don't have to spend hours making your own. This gives you more time to worry about your holiday dinners.

Here's what you need:
2 cups vanilla frozen yogurt, softened
6 gingersnap cookies, chopped
2 bananas, sliced
1/4 cup toasted pecans, chopped


Now, here's what you do:
Layer equal portions of the ingredients in four individual serving cups. 
Then, place the desserts in the freezer until you're ready to serve.
