Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (either plain or vanilla)

1 cup dried cranberries

1 cup shelled pistachios, coarsely chopped

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a spatula or whisk to blend the ingredients thoroughly until smooth and creamy.

    Incorporate Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the dried cranberries and chopped pistachios into the yogurt mixture. Stir to ensure that the goodies are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt.

      Form the Clusters: With the help of a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop generous spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Ensure the clusters are spaced about 2 inches apart to allow for slight spreading.

        Freeze Until Solid: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the clusters to freeze for a minimum of 3 hours, or until they are completely solid.

          Store for Later: After freezing, carefully transfer the clusters to an airtight container. To prevent them from sticking together, consider layering them with sheets of parchment paper. Store in the freezer for up to 2 months for optimal freshness.

            Enjoy Your Clusters: When craving a sweet treat, take out the desired number of clusters from the freezer. Let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before indulging—this will allow them to soften slightly for the perfect, creamy bite!
