Step-by-Step Beginner-Friendly Instructions

💡 Pro Tips

• Use extra-thick yogurt for the best bite texture—runny yogurt will create icy results.
• Add extras like chopped nuts, berries, or shredded coconut for flavor variety.
• Want them higher in protein? Use a protein-enriched yogurt and add your favorite powder.
• Use silicone molds for the easiest release and clean edges.
