Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (0.3 oz) box sugar-free gelatin powder (any flavor)
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or non-fat)
  • Sweetener of choice, to taste (optional)

  • Instructions

    1. 1. Prepare the Gelatin: In a medium-sized heatproof bowl, empty the contents of the sugar-free gelatin powder. Carefully pour in 1 cup of boiling water. Whisk continuously for about 2 minutes, or until the gelatin powder is completely dissolved and no granules remain. The mixture should be clear and vibrant in color.

    2. 2. Add Cold Water: Stir in 1 cup of cold water into the dissolved gelatin mixture. This helps to cool down the mixture and prepare it for the next step.

    3. 3. Incorporate Greek Yogurt: In a separate bowl, whisk the plain Greek yogurt until it is smooth and creamy. If you are adding a sweetener, mix it into the Greek yogurt at this stage.

    4. 4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the slightly cooled gelatin mixture to the whisked Greek yogurt, stirring constantly. It’s important to add the gelatin slowly while stirring to ensure a smooth, uniform consistency and prevent the yogurt from curdling. Continue stirring until the two mixtures are fully combined and the color is consistent throughout.

    5. 5. Portion into Serving Dishes: Carefully pour the combined jello and yogurt mixture into individual serving cups, small bowls, or a larger dessert dish. This recipe typically yields 4-6 servings, depending on the size of your dishes.

    6. 6. Chill Until Set: Place the filled dishes into the refrigerator. Allow them to chill for at least 2-3 hours, or until the dessert is fully set and firm to the touch. The longer it chills, the firmer it will become. Once set, it’s ready to enjoy!
