Instructions
 

Make the Churro Cups:

    - In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder.

      - In a small saucepan, combine melted butter, water, and vanilla extract. Bring to a boil over medium heat.

        - Once boiling, remove from heat and add the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms.

          - Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a muffin tin with non-stick spray.

            - Fill each muffin cup with churro dough, pressing the dough into the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.

              - While the cups are baking, mix the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Once baked, toss the warm churro cups in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat. Set aside to cool.

                Prepare the Frozen Yogurt:

                  - In a large bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.

                    - Pour the mixture into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.

                      Assemble the Crunch Cups:

                        - Once the churro cups have cooled and the frozen yogurt is firm, scoop generous amounts of frozen yogurt into each churro cup.

                          - Top with mixed berries, and sprinkle mini chocolate chips or sprinkles on top. If desired, add a swirl of whipped cream.

                            Serve and Enjoy:

                              - Serve immediately for a delightful treat, or freeze for a more solidified dessert. Enjoy your Frozen Yogurt Churro Crunch Cups with friends or family!
