Berry Yogurt Frozen Pie (courtesy of WebMD)
Ten servings

INGREDIENTS
Graham cracker crust:
1 1/2 cups finely ground low-fat (or regular) graham crackers
2 tablespoons white sugar
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons whipped butter or less-fat margarine (with 8 grams fat per tablespoon), melted
1 1/2 tablespoons fat-free half-and-half or low-fat milk
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Filling:
2 8 oz or 3 6oz containers of berry-flavored low-fat yogurt
3 to 3 1/2 cups light whipped topping (like Cool Whip Lite)
1 1/2 cups finely chopped strawberries, or unchopped raspberries or blackberries
10 whole strawberries, or 10 tablespoons of other berries for garnish (optional)

METHOD
Mix graham crackers crumbs, sugar, honey, melted butter and cinnamon until well blended. Press mixture into 9-inch pie plate; set aside.

Mix yogurt, by hand, with the light whipped topping in a large bowl. Gently stir in the berries by hand.

Spoon the yogurt mixture into the graham cracker crust. Freeze until firm (overnight, or at least 4 hours).

Remove from the freezer and top each serving with a fresh strawberry (or small spoonful of berries) if desired.
