Tips/Notes
May substitute plain yogurt for Greek yogurt. If plain yogurt is used, strain the excess whey for about an hour by placing it in a cheesecloth-lined wire strainer. This will reduce the amount of yogurt by about ¼ cup.
For creamy frozen yogurt, use whole milk yogurt and whole milk. The reason is that the fat content contributes to the creaminess of the frozen yogurt.
You can use regular unsweetened cocoa, Dutch processed unsweetened cocoa, and Hershey's special dark unsweetened cocoa in this recipe.
You can substitute one tablespoon of vanilla extract for the Godivia Chocolate Liqueur in this recipe.
It's important that the yogurt mixture be cold before adding it to the ice cream maker. Otherwise, the frozen yogurt may not properly set.
