Ingredients
  

For the Cups
  • 1/2 cup white almond bark Melted for dipping
  • 1 package frozen mini phyllo cups (15 count) These serve as the cookie base
  • 15 pieces Cheerios cereal Used as the centerpiece of each cup
For the Filling
  • 2 containers Yoplait Boston cream pie yogurt (4 oz each) Can be substituted with plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder For flavoring the yogurt
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream For topping
For the Saucers
  • 15 flat chocolate or ginger cookies Serves as the base for the phyllo cups

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Melt the almond bark carefully in the microwave or in a double boiler.
  2. Dip half of a Cheerios in the melted almond bark and stick it to a phyllo cup. Let it dry.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt and cocoa powder until combined.
  4. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the yogurt mixture into each phyllo cup.
  5. Top with a small dollop of whipped cream and dust with extra cocoa powder.
  6. Place the phyllo cup on a cookie as its saucer. Use extra melted almond bark to glue the cup to the cookie if desired.
Serving
  1. Arrange the cookies on a shallow platter for visual appeal.
  2. Serve slightly chilled so the yogurt holds its shape while the almond bark remains soft.
  3. Offer espresso or black tea alongside to enhance the flavors.
Storage
  1. Store in a single layer in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours.
  2. For best results, fill phyllo cups just before serving.

Notes

Temper the almond bark slowly using short microwave bursts to avoid graininess. Chill phyllo cups before assembling to help the almond bark set faster. Dust cocoa just before serving for a better presentation.
