Ingredients
  

  • For the Yogurt Base:
  • 450-500 g thick Greek yogurt full-fat for richest texture
  • 8-12 dry cookies depending on container size
  • Optional Add-ins:
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1-2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Best Cookie Options:
  • Lotus Biscoff caramelized flavor
  • Graham crackers classic cheesecake feel
  • Digestive biscuits mild, oaty note
  • Oreos or Golden Oreos sweeter variation
  • Shortbread or vanilla wafers buttery finish

Instructions
 

  • Open the yogurt container and remove a few spoonfuls if it's filled too high.
  • Stir in any optional ingredients if you want a richer flavor (honey, cream cheese, vanilla).
  • Push the cookies vertically into the yogurt so they are mostly covered.
  • Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator.
  • Chill for at least 6 hours, but overnight is even better (12-24 hours gives the best texture).
  • Serve cold or let it sit for a few minutes before eating.
