I recently tried the recipe proposed by Dr. Davis for a frozen version of our L. Reuteri concoction (formerly called yogurt).
As background, I have probably made 100 or more batches of L. Reuteri now with good success. It usually comes out thick and creamy with a delightfully tangy taste.
I started with about a quart from my most recent batch, I added in cocoa and sweetener (I used about half the sweetener proposed as I find I am very sensitive to sweets these days).
Once I put it in the freezer, it ended up hard as a brick. Put back in the refrigerator overnight and it was cold soup. I did find that if I took the cold soup and put it back in freezer for between 1.5 and 2 hours, the result was slightly icy, crunchy but not a bad frozen dessert. It was not as creamy as ice cream or frozen yogurt.
I may try to find some popsicle molds because I think this would make a really good L. Reuteri Fudgesicle!
I was just wondering if I was missing something - the recipe wasn’t entirely clear on how long to freeze and I wasn’t sure if I messed it up by trying to make a larger batch (I think Dr. Davis proposed just a cup).
I would appreciate it if anyone else who has experimented with making this into a frozen dessert would share their experiences.
Thank!

Making popsicle molds is the easiest method, Eric, and yields a surprisingly smooth, creamy end-result.
I put my yogurt in an ice cream maker to yield frozen yogurt.
