Description

Thick, creamy, smooth and silky greek yogurt make the best savory dips, yogurt fruit dips, and cream cheese frostings. For best results, make homemade yogurt in the best yogurt machine on the planet by Luvelle {my opinion}. Then for extra thick greek yogurt, pile it onto thick, luxurious, organic cheesecloth to drain away all the excess whey. The result is extra creamy, extra thick, and extra spreadable yogurt.
