Welcome

I am addicted to cooking and baking. I love to find and make delicious recipes. Sometimes I create my own and I post them here. Other times I find a recipe and adapt it. I have posted those recipes here as well. Enjoy.

ORANGE & CHOCOLATE CHIP YO-CREAM





(Greek yogurt meets heavy cream, then gets churned and frozen)

Refreshing, Orangy, Creamy and Delicious.  The healthy benefits of Greek yogurt and the creaminess of ice cream combine for a spectacular flavor fantasy in this NEW frozen dessert.  (Very much like Swiss Orange Chip Ice Cream)


Ingredients:
1 cup plain non fat Greek yogurt
1 cup vanilla non fat Greek yogurt
¼ plus1/8 teaspoon pure orange extract
¾ cup  milk or almond milk
¾ - 1 cup sugar (I used extra fine baker’s sugar)
¾ cup heavy whipping cream
4 drops red food coloring and 6 drops of yellow food coloring (whatever combination to make orange), optional
2 teaspoons orange zest (grated in small pieces), or zest of 1 medium orange
1 to 1 ½ cups mini semi sweet chocolate chips

Directions:
In a blender, blend all of the ingredients (except chocolate chips and orange zest) just for about 30 seconds. Chill the blender mixture in the fridge for about an hour or so. Then churn according to your ice cream maker’s manufacturer’s instructions.  Just before you remove the yogurt from the ice cream machine add the mini chocolate chips and the orange zest. Be sure that the chips and zest mix in. Freeze for 3 hours before serving.  Top with your favorite topping.
