Last weekend had friends over for dinner. After almost entire day of cooking, I was left with just an hour before their arrival, when I realized I had no dessert on the menu. Honestly, its not easy for me to whip out a healthy dessert without any prior planning. But somehow it worked this time and I impressed myself ;-)
I made these in individual servings to maintain that pretty look in every cup. It was such a pleasure to see everyone finish all their portion with a guilt free expression on their faces.
Few basic ingredients, always in my freezer fixed up a great looking dessert that everyone enjoyed. I did not get a chance to measure due to crunch time, but am sure this recipe doesn't need exact measurements. Play around with it.
Ingredients
Frozen Raspberries - approx 1/2 cup
Frozen Blueberries - approx 1/2 cup
Frozen Strawberries - approx 1/2 cup
1 tsp cornstarch
sugar 1/4 cup
water 1/4 cup
4 container Non Fat Plain Greek Yogurt (8 oz each)
vanilla 1 tsp
honey/agave nectar 4 tsp
8-9 crushed your favorite cookies
Recipe
- Crush cookies in a Ziploc bag.
- Heat 1/4 cup water and 1/4 cup sugar. Add all the berries. The berries will thaw in this mixture and release their juices. Add the cornstarch for the mixture to thicken. Remove from heat and put the pan in the fridge to cool.
- Mix well vanilla, honey and Greek yogurt.
- Start putting together the look
- Create the bottom most layer with cookies
- Add Greek yogurt
- Top up with berries mixture
- Top up with yogurt again
- Finish the look by some berries and shaved chocolate
- Let it set in the fridge to cool. Serve just when you are ready
