Creamy Peanut Butter-Infused Frozen Delight
Indulge in the sheer pleasure of crafting your own peanut butter frozen yogurt, a refreshing treat with a healthy twist. Whisk together the key ingredients – plain yogurt, cream, sugar, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt – in a large mixing bowl. The secret to flawless texture lies in the whisking, ensuring that the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture isn't gritty.
Once you've whipped up the heavenly concoction, transfer it to your ice cream maker and let it churn for 17 to 20 minutes. You'll end up with a luscious soft-serve consistency, similar to a thick milkshake.
Thanks to a creative touch inspired by gelato shops, you'll save the roasted peanuts for an added crunch, sprinkling them on top when placing the frozen yogurt in a wide, shallow container. Freeze this sweet delight for at least 6 hours or until it hardens to scoopable perfection.
