Main Ingredients
- 1½ cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 package sugar-free Jell-O (flavor of choice)
- ½ cup boiling water
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional; recommended for orange flavor)
Instructions
- Dissolve Jell-O: Add the boiling water to a medium bowl, then pour in the sugar-free Jell-O mix. Whisk well until the powder completely dissolves to avoid any graininess in the final dessert.
- Incorporate half the yogurt: Transfer about half of the Greek yogurt to the bowl with the dissolved Jell-O, whisking gently but thoroughly until fully combined.
- Add remaining yogurt: Pour in the rest of the Greek yogurt and whisk the mixture until it’s completely smooth and lump-free for a creamy consistency.
- Add vanilla extract (optional): If desired, stir in ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract. This step is especially recommended if using orange-flavored Jell-O to enhance a creamsicle-like flavor.
- Cover and chill: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into separate bowls or parfait glasses and cover those with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until the mixture is completely set.
- Serve and garnish: Once set, serve chilled. Optionally, add a dollop of whipped cream, fresh fruit, or orange zest to enhance the flavor and presentation.
Notes
- Make sure the Jell-O powder fully dissolves in boiling water to avoid a grainy texture.
- For a creamsicle twist, use orange Jell-O and add vanilla extract.
- Can be served in individual glasses or a single bowl for easy entertaining.
- Chilling time may vary slightly depending on refrigerator temperature.
- This recipe is naturally low in calories and sugar-free when using sugar-free Jell-O.
