Delicious Muller Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt at Walmart

I first found out about Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt when I was doing my weekly grocery shopping at Walmart.   As I was walking in the refrigerator section I saw them demoing a new yogurt.  When I walked over I saw that it was ice cream inspired yogurt and was intrigued.   I admit I sampled two of these delicious yogurts.   I tried the Vanilla Bean which is smooth, sweet, and has a lot of delicious vanilla bean flavor.  I also tried the Raspberry Chocolate Chip which is a creamy raspberry yogurt studded with chocolate chips.   Both were pretty awesome so I bought a few of each!Enjoying the Muller Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt!

My “Me Moments” often happen in the morning.  I wake up at 5:45 each morning and often have an hour of quiet time to myself before I get ready for work and head into the business of my day.   I like to browse new recipes on my laptop and enjoy a few spoonfuls of Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt in Raspberry Chocolate Chip.  It’s such an indulgent way to start my day and to have a little time for myself.  Plus, I can feel good about having my dessert for breakfast or even in between groups at school.

Since I like to bake and I found these yogurts to be irresistible, I just had to try a recipe using them!  I found these adorable cupcake liners with ice cream cups all over them and was inspired to make a “better for me muffin” that would be the perfect on the go snack and would satisfy my sweet tooth.

I made a simple muffin recipe, divided the batter in half, and added a cup of the Vanilla Bean yogurt to one half and a cup of the Raspberry Chocolate Chip yogurt to the other half.   This worked great and I was able to significantly reduce the amount of butter in the muffins.   I placed the Raspberry Chocolate Chip batter on the bottom and the Vanilla Bean batter on the top and popped them in the oven.   They smelled amazing in the oven!   It was almost like I was baking ice cream.

Once they came out of the oven I sprinkled a pinch of cocoa powder on top.   They looked wonderful and tasted even better.  It was like eating a double scoop ice cream muffin.  These are the perfect way to indulge on the run.   I actually managed to have a “Me Moment” in my car on the way to work the other day.   I put on a local radio station that plays hits from my childhood, grabbed one of these Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt Muffins, and enjoyed my entire ride to work.  Hey, I’ll take time out for myself whenever I can get it!

  1. You’re muffins look fantastic and they sound great too. I bet the yogurt makes them so moist. I will have to look for this when i go to the store.
