Frozen yogurt dots

I don't know about you, but desert has become a THING with my kid! 

It's requested and thought about all the time. Sweets this and sweets that! We are bombarded with treats everywhere. Its at home, restaurants, schools, TV commercials, grocery check out stands. Total craziness. We had to eliminate deserts from our vocabulary Sunday - Thursday. No one gets desert in our house on these nights. For us, desert meant a piece of chocolate, or a piece of left over Easter treats. Minimal but still pure sugar that isn't needed. I don't want this habit started at 6 yrs old. It's a weekend thing only now. Special treats. So to try to help my plea, I have started making these frozen yogurt dots that my son now calls desert. LOL. Yes, they still have sugar, but not nearly as much as the usual choices. And because it's yogurt, I secretly feel a little better letting him have one after dinner. Go figure.

Super easy, super fast and a healthier option. Fun for summer! Every kid love ice cream like treats.

 You can make these even cooler by adding a wooden candy stick before freezing, making them frozen yogurt pops. Or leave as is. Small little yumminess bites.

Makes 6 dots

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt. If you choose, you can buy 1  5oz carton of a pre-made flavor. More sugar but minimal for 1 dot.
• 1 Tbs honey. (Only if you are not using pre-flavored yogurt.)
• 6 blueberries
