Ingredients
1 cup nonfat VOSKOS nonfat Greek yogurt
2 tbs sugar free or regular honey, agave or stevia (if using stevia you’ll need less)
1/2 cup berries (we used 1/4 cup blueberries and 1/4 cup assorted strawberries and blackberries)
5 small throw-away cups
5 popsicle sticks
5 pieces foil

Directions
1. Combine yogurt and sweetener of choice in a small bowl.
2. Mash 1/2 cup of berries using a fork. Scrape bowl and add to the yogurt mixture. Stir.
3. Spoon yogurt in to individual cups. Add blueberries and press down (roughly 3-5 each cup).
4. Cut foil in squares large enough to cover and wrap over top of each cup. Poke hole in center of each foil and add Popsicle stick.
5. Place Popsicles in freezer for 3-4 hours to harden or until ready to eat. When frozen solid, peel cup from yogurt pop.
Note: the original creator tried to do these in regular cups and Popsicle molds, but with yogurt they don’t come out easily from hard cups if at all. The paper cups are a nice option because they peel right off.

..I would imagine you can use any greek yogurt, and possibly even regular yogurt. I will be trying it with Greek Goddess yogurt since that is one of my favorites.
