Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup 35% heavy cream, divided
  • 1 packet (1 oz./1 tbsp.) unflavored gelatin
  • 2 cups vanilla yogurt
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tbsp. orange zest
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup pistachios, shelled and chopped
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries

Directions

  • In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup heavy cream with gelatin; stir to incorporate.
  • In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, pour in the other ¼ cup heavy cream and when it gets hot but not boiling, add the gelatin mixture. Turn off the heat and whisk for a couple of minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and transfer into a large measuring cup; let it cool.
  • When cooled, add yogurt, condensed milk and orange zest; whisk until well blended.
  • Place a silicone mold over a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat. Pour yogurt mixture in each mold – if you don’t have one, use a deep baking dish.
  • Sprinkle on sunflower seeds evenly followed with pistachios and finally cranberries.
  • Transfer to the fridge for 4 hours or the freezer for 2 hours.
