Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (whole milk or 2%)
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
Place the blackberries and granulated sugar in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the berries release their juices and the sugar dissolves.
Remove the blackberry mixture from heat and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds. Allow the strained blackberry syrup to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, heavy cream, vanilla extract, honey, and cocoa powder until smooth and fully combined.
Stir the cooled blackberry syrup into the yogurt mixture, ensuring it is evenly mixed.
Melt the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly before folding it gently into the yogurt mixture, creating swirls of chocolate throughout.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight, freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm, stirring every hour for the first 2 hours to prevent large ice crystals from forming.
Before serving, let the frozen yogurt sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop and serve immediately or garnish with fresh blackberries and additional chocolate shavings.
