Ingredients

•2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries

•2 cups nonfat or low-fat plain yogurt, preferably Greek-style (see Note)

•3-5 tablespoons sugar

•1/2 cup mini chocolate chips



Preparation

1.Puree raspberries, yogurt and sugar to taste in a food processor until smooth.

2.Divide the mixture among freezer-pop molds (see box, right), stopping about 1 inch from the top. Evenly divide chocolate chips among the molds. Stir the chips into the raspberry mixture, stirring out any air pockets at the same time. Insert the sticks and freeze until completely firm, about 6 hours.

Tips & Notes

•Make Ahead Tip: Freeze for up to 3 weeks. | Equipment: Ten 3-ounce (or similar-size) freezer-pop molds

•Ingredient Note: Greek-style yogurt is made by removing the whey from cultured milk, which gives the yogurt an extra-thick and creamy texture. Look for it with other yogurt in large supermarkets.

Ooooooh! Looks and sounds delicious! Going to try it this weekend? Can I use light yogurt if I can't find the Greek-Style kind? I've looked in the yogurt section before for different yogurts and in the mid-west, as far as I've found, they don't really carry a variety of thing like that.

Flora, I'm really not sure as you see in the notes it says Greek yogurt works best. You may find "Greek" yogurt in the organic section of your gorcery store!

Hope this helps! :ohwell:

Yes, you can. I freeze my leftover smoothies into smoothie-pops and I use low-fat yogurt. The finished product just won't be as creamy or ice-cream-like. But it will still taste good.

I might try it with some of my low-fat vanilla yogurt to avoid all that sugar.
