Cuisinart frozen yogurt recipes confusing

Cuisinart frozen yogurt recipes confusing - Black Dog Licking Frozen Yogurt in a Cup

I just bought an ice cream maker (ICE 70) and it came with an instruction/recipe book, but the recipes for the frozen yogurt are confusing.

One example is like this

  • 2 cups whole milk, plain Greek yoghurt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 cups frozen mango pieces
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice

So on the first ingredient they say two different things, whole milk and yoghurt, but am I supposed to use both, or only one of these?

For example am i supposed to use

2 cups whole milk AND 2 cups yoghurt?

OR

2 cups combined whole milk and yoghurt (1 cup each)

OR

2 cups only of whole milk OR 2 cups only of yoghurt (I choose which one)

Does anyone know?

The recipe says:

Best Answer

I read that as 2 cups of Greek yogurt made from whole milk (ie not low- or non-fat yogurt). The comma does make it confusing, however.

Can I just freeze yogurt to make frozen yogurt?

Homemade Frozen Yogurt can be made with any yogurt you prefer. I use greek as it is higher in protein but feel free to use regular. Some of you might wonder if you can freeze greek yogurt, and the answer is yes! Greek yogurt will freeze just fine.

How do you make yogurt in a Cuisinart ice cream maker?

In a medium mixing bowl, use a hand mixer on low speed to combine the milk and granulated sugar until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the yogurt, heavy cream, and vanilla. Turn the machine on; pour the mixture into freezer bowl, and let mix until thickened, about 20 to 25 minutes.

How do you prevent ice crystals in frozen yogurt?

Finally, we prevented large ice crystals from forming by allowing the frozen yogurt base to cool to 40 F or lower before churning. You can increase the vanilla extract to 1 tablespoon if you don't have a vanilla bean, though the flavor will be duller.

Why is my homemade frozen yogurt icy?

The problem is that yogurt, while creamy when you spoon it from the carton, actually contains a good amount of water and not a lot of fat. When you freeze it, the water forms crystals that make fro-yo icy and decidedly non-creamy.
