Chobani Flip Confetti Birthday Cake Yogurt Recipe

Chobani Flip Confetti Birthday Cake is birthday cake flavoured Greek yogurt with cake bites, frosted rice crisps and pastry pieces to tip in. For a homemade version, sweeten plain Greek yogurt with sugar, vanilla and a little almond extract, and keep toasted cake cubes, white-chocolate rice crisps, sprinkles and shortbread pieces in a separate container until the moment of eating.

What is in a Chobani Flip Confetti Birthday Cake

Chobani's product page describes cake bites, frosted rice crisps and pastry pieces that tumble together in birthday cake flavoured Greek yogurt. The ingredients begin with cultured lowfat milk, cane sugar, water, wheat flour, palm oils, brown sugar, rice flour and tapioca flour, and the colour comes from vegetable juice concentrate, beta carotene and spirulina. A 4.5-ounce cup has 160 calories, 10 grams of protein and 16 grams of sugars, 12 of them added.

A serving of this recipe is a little larger and comes to about 220 calories and 13 grams of protein by USDA figures. It is a reconstruction from the label, and MakeFoodLovely is not connected with Chobani.

Ingredients

• For the yogurt:
• 2 cups plain lowfat Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons cane sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
• For the mix-ins:
• 1 ounce pound cake, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
• 1 ounce white chocolate, chopped
• 1/3 cup crisp rice cereal
• 1 teaspoon rainbow sprinkles
• 2 shortbread cookies, broken into small pieces

Instructions

1. Heat the oven to 300°F. Spread the cake cubes on a baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes, until dry and lightly golden. Let them cool; they crisp as they cool.
2. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring each time. Stir in the rice cereal until coated, spread it on parchment, scatter the sprinkles over it and let it set for 15 minutes. Break it into small clusters.
3. Stir the sugar, the vanilla and the almond extract into the yogurt until the sugar has dissolved.
4. Mix the cake cubes, the rice clusters and the shortbread pieces in a small container. Divide the yogurt among four bowls or jars, 1/2 cup each.
5. Tip about 2 tablespoons of the mix-ins into each portion of yogurt just before eating.

Why the mix-ins stay on the side

Stirred into the yogurt ahead of time, the cake and the rice crisps take up moisture and go soft within minutes. Kept apart, they stay crisp for a week in a closed container at room temperature. The yogurt keeps 4 days in the refrigerator, so a batch covers four breakfasts or snacks.

For a lunch box, use a small jar for the yogurt and a second, smaller container for the mix-ins.

Birthday cake flavour in yogurt

The cake flavour is vanilla with a trace of almond extract, the same pair as in the birthday cake creamer on this site. An eighth of a teaspoon is enough for two cups of yogurt.

Cane sugar dissolves in a minute of stirring. Honey or maple syrup, in the same amount, sweeten the yogurt too and add their own flavour.

The three mix-ins

• Cake pieces. Fresh cake goes soggy at once. Dried in a low oven, the cubes turn into small rusks that stay crisp.
• Frosted rice crisps. The white chocolate coats the cereal and keeps the yogurt out for a while. The sprinkles stick to it while it is soft.
• Pastry pieces. Shortbread stands in for them. Homemade shortbread, such as the Trefoils on this site, works as well as bought.

Other flavours by the same method

Chobani's Flip range includes flavours such as Cookies & Cream, S'more S'mores and Key Lime Crumble. The two-part method carries over to homemade versions; these are this site's own combinations, not Chobani's recipes.
