Homemade Frozen Yogurt

I also decided to use my ice-cream maker this weekend! Josh and I had used it once a long time ago...maybe in 2005 or 2006 and made some vailla ice-cream when some of our UNI friends were visiting..so I thought I'd give it a whirl again.

So, for it's second use, I made some chocolate frozen yogurt. It was SO easy to make, and the ingredients were minimal. To make the frozen yogurt...and I got to use my Magic Bullet to blend the ingredients. First I had to blend the milk and chocolate chips. (Yes, I have two cups because of the size of the recipe...).






Then, you simply add the vanilla yogurt and sugar and blend until smooth. Look at the Magic Blender go! I love the Magic Bullet!










Then, you simply pour the mixture into the ice-cream maker and turn on the machine. (The large bowl had been in the freezer all day.) It takes about 30 minutes to "freeze." The only negative is that the ice-cream maker is kind of loud...in my opinion.

I scooped out most of the frozen yogurt, and put it in a container to freeze a bit longer so it'd become a bit firmer for later eating. However, it didn't all quite fit into the container...so of course I had a bowl right away, too! It was yummy! I'll have to snack on the rest of it later this week I guess. It was fun making the frozen yogurt. I like it because you can see small specks of the chocolate all through the frozen yogurt.
Maybe next time I'll make some fruity sorbet!?! That sounds good, too!!!
Now I have lots of leftovers to eat, and I'll be gone basically from Thursday-Sunday of next week...so I probably won't be posting for awhile! I've been having fun with this blog...and I hope you've enjoyed reading!
