- In a large bowl, mash the cream cheese with sugar until thoroughly combined; stir in the lemon juice and mix in the yogurt, about 200g at a time, until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Mix in the cherries. Cover the bowl with cling film and chill until very cold, at least 4 hours.

Oh yum! I don't have an ice cream maker so I improvised. I whirred all the ingredients in my blender (with about a tablespoon of grenadine), leaving out the cherries. I covered it and stuck it in the freezer and let it get really cold and ALMOST frozen before I ran it through the blender again, after which I folded in the cherries. I made little frozen treat pops out of this recipe with dixie cups and popsicle sticks. I was able to get 14 little cups full. I just lined them up on a flat serving tray and stuck them in the freezer until they were just about solid, then stuck the popsicle sticks in them. These are SO good! SO good. We're really loving these little gems. I think this might be our new summer treat--thanks for sharing. - 02 Jul 2011 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
Use non-fat Greek yogurt and non-fat cream cheese to lower the calories/serving to 130! Still tastes delicious and freezes well. The Greek Yogurt overpowers the cream cheese so it doesn't taste very much like cheesecake but ease of prep and taste make it a recipe worth making again. - 07 Jun 2012 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
Great frozen yogurt recipe, and it was still rich and creamy with low fat cream cheese and low fat yogurt. I used frozen strawberries instead of cherries and chopped them in the food processor. - 08 Aug 2011 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
