Ingredients
  

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup fresh raspberries (or frozen raspberries, thawed)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

Zest of 1 medium lemon

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

A pinch of salt

Optional: additional fresh raspberries and lemon zest for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Raspberry Mixture: In a blender or food processor, add the fresh raspberries (or thawed frozen raspberries), lemon juice, and honey (or maple syrup). Blend until the mixture is mostly smooth but retains some raspberry bits for added texture. Set aside.

    Mix the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is creamy and smooth.

      Layer the Mixtures: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Using a spoon or a piping bag, drop small dollops (about 1 tablespoon) of the yogurt mixture onto the parchment paper, slightly flattening each dollop. Next, take the raspberry mixture and add a small spoonful on top of each yogurt dollop.

        Swirl for Effect: Use a toothpick or a skewer to gently swirl the raspberry mixture into the yogurt. Aim for a marbled look, taking care not to over-mix—the goal is to showcase both colors beautifully.

          Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the yogurt coins to freeze for about 2-3 hours, or until they are completely set and firm.

            Serve: Once frozen, carefully peel the yogurt coins off the parchment paper and place them in an airtight container for storage. Optionally, just before serving, garnish with additional fresh raspberries and a sprinkle of lemon zest.

              Enjoy: Keep the yogurt coins in the freezer until you are ready to enjoy them. These refreshing treats are perfect for hot days or as a delicious, healthy snack!
