Ingredients
  

2 cups cherry-flavored Greek yogurt

1 cup creamy vanilla yogurt

1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and halved

1 teaspoon almond extract

1 tablespoon honey (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 cup crunchy granola

12 large cookies (choose chocolate chip or oatmeal for a comforting flavor)

Optional: Shredded coconut or crushed nuts for an extra topping boost

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cherry-flavored Greek yogurt, creamy vanilla yogurt, almond extract, and honey. Use a whisk or spatula to mix everything together until the ingredients are fully blended and the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Incorporate the Cherries:

        Carefully fold the halved fresh cherries into the yogurt mixture, using a spatula to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout without breaking them up too much.

          Assemble the Sandwiches:

            Take one cookie and generously spread a layer of the cherry-vanilla yogurt mixture on the flat side. Place another cookie on top, flat side down, and gently press them together to create a sandwich. Continue this process until all cookies and yogurt mixture are used.

              Coat the Sandwiches:

                Once all sandwiches are assembled, roll the edges of each sandwich in the crunchy granola, pressing gently to help it adhere. For an extra touch, sprinkle shredded coconut or crushed nuts on the edges for added flavor and texture.

                  Freezing:

                    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the completed sandwiches on it. Transfer to the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are firm and ready to serve.

                      Serve:

                        Before serving, remove the sandwiches from the freezer and let them sit for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier biting. These delicious treats are perfect for cooling down on a warm day!
