DADAism wasn't an art movement, it was anti-art. In this same spirit, cookingDADA is far from gourmet, but at least everything here is edible. Enjoy!

Yogurt-The Other Ice Cream

I keep a vat of plain yogurt around for various reasons. It goes great in smoothies, gives quick breads a moist texture and is just good eatin' with the right toppings.

After pouring a tablespoon of maple syrup (the real maple syrup please) over a cup of the smooth stuff and devouring something occurred to me; I have heavy whipping cream, leftover dulce de leche and a new food processor! A simple but tasty concoction was born. Behold:



I was surprised at just how good this was. Frickin' delicious. At first I only made it to take a photo. But I never put anything on this blog without eating it first, so...that glass is empty.

Here is what you need:

-Plain yogurt.
-Dulce de leche (see easy recipe here.)
-Heavy whipping cream (you could use a can, but the extra sweetness is overkill.)
-Fresh strawberries, bananas, or fruit of your choice.

**All ingredients should be refrigerated before using if possible.**

Prepare:

-Drizzle a thick layer of dulce de leche into the bottom of the glass. Let it settle, then:

-Layer spoonfuls of yogurt gently across the top of the dulce de leche. You could do one giant layer or repeat this process two or three times. Personal preference.

-For the last layer, pile on the pre-whipped and refrigerated whipping cream.

-Top with your favorite fruit and enjoy! You could also shave a little nutmeg, chocolate or cinnamon on top of this for aesthetics and another flavor layer. Yuuuummy.

Of course, if all that seems too complicated, you can always pour a little maple syrup over in and call it a day.
