This quick and delightful recipe is a perfect go-to for when you’re short on time but crave something sweet and satisfying. It cleverly substitutes traditional wheat with yogurt and cheese for a rich, creamy texture, and the addition of lemon zest gives it a refreshing zing. Here’s how to whip up this no-fuss treat in just a couple of minutes:
Quick & Easy Yogurt Dessert
Ingredients:
3 large eggs
3/4 cup (150 g) of sugar
Zest of 1 lemon (for that lovely citrusy kick)
2 cups (500 g) of Greek yogurt (that’s about 4 plain unsweetened 125g Greek yogurt pots)
8 ounces (about 1 cup or 250 g) mascarpone cheese or cream cheese (whichever you have or prefer)
1 heaped tablespoon of cornstarch (helps thicken the dessert to the perfect consistency)
Steps to Sweetness:
Mix Eggs and Sugar: In a big bowl, beat the 3 large eggs with the 3/4 cup of sugar. Mix them well until they’re nice and smooth.
Add the Zest and Dairy: Grate the zest of 1 lemon into the bowl for a fresh flavor. Then, pour in the 2 cups of Greek yogurt and add the 8 ounces of mascarpone or cream cheese. The cheese makes it extra creamy and delicious.
Thicken with Cornstarch: Sprinkle that heaped tablespoon of cornstarch over the mix. This is the secret to making your dessert just the right thickness without needing any wheat!
