Great! I used less sugar- only 1/2 cup. I mixed an egg (or you could use egg substitute) into the milk to add some richness, and heated it slowly. I didn't use chocolate chips either. When the mixture had thickened over the heat (enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon- it takes me about 20 minutes), I took it off the burner and stirred in 2/3 cup of chocolate syrup with the vanilla. I felt like some mix-ins so to the churned yogurt I added eggless chocolate chip cookie dough and light eggless peanut butter cookie dough dipped in chocolate. What can I say? I'm a sucker for cookie dough.

LOVE IT! I can see how some people might not enjoy the tanginess of the yogurt, but I like the contrast to the sweet chocolate. I didn't have chocolate chips so I used abuelita hot chocolate mix instead (mexican hot Chocolate)a hole disk and less sugar. YUM the cinnamon in the abuelita added a nice touch, Thanks will deffinitly make this again.

This was way too tart for me to even handle...It did thicken for me but I used 2 tbspns of cornstarch instead of teaspoons. I also used 18 packets of splenda instead of sugar. Not going to waste my time on this one again.

I loved this recipe. My husband wasn't keen on the flavour, but the texture is fabulous. I had no trouble getting it to thicken - I think the key is to make sure you cook the mixture until it boils, and make sure it cools completely before putting it in the ice cream maker. I agree with another reviewer this recipe has a very 'sour creamy' taste which may be better suited to tangy fruit (i.e. raspberries, mango etc.) than chocolate chips. I'm looking forward to trying it with fruit.

This really wasn't very good at all. I tried it a couple times and tried other peoples suggestions of adding more cornstarch and cooking it longer but it still didn't thicken properly and tasted quite awful. I definitely will not be making this again. Thanks anyway.

This recipe doesn't deserve a star. I'm frozen yogurt connoiseur, and this was the worst I have ever had.

This was so good, the yogurt added just a little tang, and it was much richer than I would have imagined.

After reading the reviews for this recipe I decided to try it anyway. I think those who didn't have success are inexperienced cooks who don't understand cornstarch. Anyway, I used 2-3 Tablespoons of cornstarch, not teaspoons. 1/4 c. sugar, because the choc. chips are so sweet. I added 3 heaping tablespoons of Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa, Dutch process. Oh, my, what a great ingredient! You have to cook the milk concoction til it boils, which means you have to use some heat to get it to thicken, which it does no problem if you use enough cornstarch and enough heat. My family loves this recipe and I think next time I'll try adding 1/4 peanut butter or a few peppermint sticks for a change. Excellent ice cream.

This is a very rich and tasty frozen yogurt. I never could get it to thicken up but once it was in the freezer for about eight hours it was the perfect texture. This is a great frozen yorgurt recipe.

This was VERY sweet. I love sweet stuff, but this was just too much. I would halve the sugar next time. Also, I did 2 tablespoons cornstarch which thickened it up very well.
