Ingredients

  • full-fat plain yogurt
    500 g
  • heavy whipping cream
    200 ml
  • sweetened condensed milk
    170 g
  • vanilla extract
    2 tbsp
  • a splash of liqueur

    optional

  • powdered sugar

    optional

Directions

  1. 1

    Put the loaf pan or container you’ll use in the freezer for at least an hour. This helps the mixture start freezing right away and improves the final texture.

  2. 2

    In a chilled bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. If needed, add powdered sugar to sweeten.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, combine the cold yogurt, condensed milk, and vanilla (and liqueur). Stir until you get a smooth, creamy mixture.

  4. 4

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the yogurt base. Use a spatula and mix from the bottom up to keep it fluffy and light.

  5. 5

    Transfer the mixture to the cold container. Smooth the surface, cover with a lid or foil, and freeze.

  6. 6

    Let it freeze for 2–3 hours. It will be creamy and scoopable. If it freezes too hard, leave it at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving.
