Greek-style yogurt with maple syrup

by Jenna on June 18, 2011

I have this container of yogurt cheese in the fridge or actually I am making yogurt cheese.  It’s been straining for about 24 hours now, but I keep dipping into it.  It’s the perfect thing for my sweet tooth.  And it’s so easy to make.  First you line a wire mesh strainer with coffee filters.
