Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey (or to taste)

Zest of 1 large lemon

1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey, lemon zest, freshly squeezed lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together thoroughly until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well blended. Taste and adjust the sweetness with more honey if desired.

    Add Raspberries: Carefully fold in the fresh raspberries using a spatula. Be gentle to keep some raspberry pieces intact, ensuring you have delightful bursts of flavor in each bite.

      Mold the Coins: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a tablespoon, scoop the yogurt mixture and drop small dollops onto the parchment, flattening each scoop slightly to form coins about 1 inch in diameter. Ensure they are evenly spaced for optimal freezing.

        Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the yogurt coins to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are completely solid and firm to the touch.

          Serve: Once frozen, carefully peel the yogurt coins off the parchment paper. You can serve them straight away or enhance their appearance by garnishing with additional fresh raspberries on top for a pop of color and freshness.

            Store: Should you have any leftovers, store the frozen yogurt coins in an airtight container in the freezer. They will remain delicious for up to 2 weeks.
