Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust according to sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh blackberries (or frozen, thawed)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch (for thickness)

A pinch of salt

1/4 cup granola or crushed nuts (optional, for topping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Blackberry Swirl:

    - In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blackberries, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the blackberries break down and release their juices.

      - Add the cornstarch and stir continuously for about a minute until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool.

        Create the Yogurt Mixture:

          - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

            Combine the Mixtures:

              - Gently fold the cooled blackberry mixture into the yogurt mixture. Aim for a marbled effect rather than fully mixing it, so you have beautiful swirls of blackberry throughout.

                Prepare the Pan:

                  - Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.

                    Pour and Freeze:

                      - Pour the yogurt-blackberry mixture into the prepared dish. Use a spatula to spread evenly. If you like, sprinkle granola or crushed nuts on top for added crunch.

                        - Place the dish in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid.

                          Serve:

                            - Once frozen, lift the yogurt slab out of the dish using the parchment paper. Cut it into squares using a sharp knife.

                              - For best results, let the squares sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving to soften slightly.

                                Enjoy:

                                  - Serve these delightful squares as a refreshing treat! They can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month.
