Ingredients
  

2 cups of your favorite cereal (e.g., cornflakes, fruity pebbles)

1 cup whole milk

1 cup plain yogurt (choose either Greek or regular)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup whipped cream (optional, for serving)

Fresh fruit or granola (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cereal Milk:

    - In a large mixing bowl, combine the chosen cereal with the whole milk. Stir gently to ensure all cereal pieces are fully immersed in the milk.

      - Allow the mixture to sit for approximately 30 minutes. This resting time allows the milk to absorb the cereal flavor, stirring occasionally to prevent cereal pieces from sticking together.

        Strain the Cereal Milk:

          - After the cereal has soaked, place a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth over a separate bowl. Carefully pour the cereal and milk mixture through the sieve, pressing lightly on the cereal with a spoon to extract as much milk as possible. Discard the strained cereal remnants.

            Mix the Ingredients:

              - In another bowl, whisk together the strained cereal milk, plain yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and salt. Mix thoroughly until you have a smooth and uniform consistency.

                Prepare for Freezing:

                  - Line a square or rectangular baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) with parchment paper, allowing a bit of overhang for easy removal later.

                    - Pour the yogurt mixture into the lined dish, using a spatula to smooth the surface and create an even layer.

                      Freeze the Mixture:

                        - Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Let it freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the mixture is completely set and firm.

                          Cutting and Serving:

                            - Once the yogurt square is thoroughly frozen, take it out from the freezer and use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out of the dish.

                              - Using a sharp knife, cut the frozen block into squares or bars, depending on your preferred serving size.

                                - Serve immediately with a dollop of whipped cream, and if desired, top with fresh fruit or granola for added texture and flavor.

                                  Enjoy:
