More About This Recipe

Let’s talk about date night, shall we?

Normally, I’m the type of girl to demand a dinner out for date night. I mean, I cook all day. Cooking for date night is not considered romantic in my world.

But do you know what is romantic? Coming home after a fancy dinner out with my love to devour a decadent homemade dessert. By candlelight, of course, so that he can barely see me shoving the dessert into my face at supersonic speeds.

Your next date night demands these Frozen Tiramisu Crunch Cakes! I’ll share a recipe for two cakes, but you can easily adjust this to make as many as you’d like. And the best part? These are beyond easy and only need four ingredients.

First, you’ll combine some Nature Valley™ Oats ‘n Dark Chocolate Protein Granola with a sprinkling of espresso powder. The espresso will give you extra energy for the, uh… other date night activities that you may or may not be participating in.

Add that to a little ramekin and top with some Yoplait™ Chocolate Mousse yogurt. Layer on more granola, more yogurt, and finish with granola.

All of that gets frozen together for a couple of hours. When you remove it from the freezer, plop it right out onto a pretty plate. I like to top mine with chocolate curls, but that’s totally optional. A sprinkling of cocoa powder would work just as well.

Set these set out at room temperature for about 15 minutes before devouring.
