Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or your favorite flavored variety)

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup coconut sugar (or substitute with brown sugar)

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (dark or milk chocolate)

1/2 cup crushed nuts (choose between walnuts or almonds)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

1 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cookie Dough:

    - In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, coconut sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended.

      - In a separate bowl, mix together the almond flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using) until evenly combined.

        - Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the yogurt mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a light texture.

          Add Mix-Ins:

            - Carefully fold in the mini chocolate chips and crushed nuts using a spatula. Ensure that they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough without breaking the chips.

              Shape the Cookie Clusters:

                - Using a tablespoon, scoop out small portions of the dough and form them into rough clusters on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Shape each portion into a small ice cream sandwich with a flat top, ensuring they are about 1-2 inches in size.

                  Freeze the Clusters:

                    - Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and freeze the cookie clusters for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until they are firm to the touch.

                      Assemble the Sandwiches:

                        - Once the cookie clusters are adequately frozen, remove them from the freezer and pair them off into twos for sandwiching.

                          - Take one cookie cluster and spread a thin layer of Greek yogurt (approximately 1-2 tablespoons) on the flat side. Add a few fresh berries on top, then place another cookie cluster on top to complete the sandwich. Gently press down to adhere.

                            Final Freeze:

                              - Return the assembled cookie sandwiches to the freezer for an additional 30 minutes. This step is crucial for ensuring they hold their shape and maintain their texture.

                                Serve:

                                  - Once the sandwiches are fully set, remove them from the freezer and serve immediately! These Frozen Yogurt Cookie Sandwich Clusters make a delightful and refreshing treat, perfect for enjoying on warm days.
