Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough FroYo

Ice cream for breakfast!  Being pregnant I'm having a hard time with food right now.  I'm also diabetic so I can't give in to a lot of my cravings.  This one is OK for me- I'm not calling it a diabetic recipe though, check your own blood sugar for your body's verdict on that- and obviously healthier than just eating a bowl of cookie dough.

What you need:

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup butter, softened for easier mixing

1/4 tsp salt

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup flour

1/4 tsp baking soda

1 cup mini chocolate chips

1 cup vanilla yogurt

Beat sugars and butter together until mixed and creamy.  Add vanilla and mix again.  In a separate bowl stir together flour, baking soda, and salt.  Once mixed, stir in chocolate chips.  Mix the two bowls together by hand.  Stir in yogurt until fully combined.  Freeze overnight.

My quality control specialist.  Once he realized those were chocolate chips, he disappeared to eat a bowlful.

Before freezing, it really does look like cookie dough!

And after freezing, ice cream it is!

Frozen Yogurt Kisses

As usual I spent a lot of the morning on Pinterest but I rarely do any of the things I pin.  I decided to start doing more, starting with Frozen Yogurt Kisses!  I think the original pinner called them dots, but they look a tiny bit like Hershey's Kisses to me.  For the original pin, click on "My Pinterest" on the right and go to the "Foodstuffs" board.

It is really easy.  Put a container of yogurt (single serve, it goes a lot way!) into a pastry piping bag.  If you don't have one use a ziplock bag and then cut the tip off.  On a baking sheet covered in parchment paper, pipe little "kisses" of yogurt.  Put the tray in the freezer for about an hour & eat!

We found they melted about the same as ice cream- 10-15 minutes and it was getting kind of messy.  Most of them had disappeared by this point though!

This is just one tray.  I also had a dinner plate covered in the dots.  No fancy edited photos of the finished product in a bowl here- this is real life, not Pinterest-life!  But they're just as good.

This is after about 3 hours in the freezer:
