Tips

  • Do not over-blend the mixture as it could get too runny.
  • If using a Creami machine after 24 hours of freezing, add a splash of water or milk and respin once or twice for a creamy consistency.
  • You can use cashew, soy, or coconut yogurt for a dairy-free version.
  • If you don't have cottage cheese, you can use more Greek yogurt.
