Mrs. Pope makes frozen yogurt by a much simpler process:
Wait until a 32 oz plain yogurt is about 3/4 full.
Then add 2 t sugar, a bunch of cut-up fresh fruit, and
a splash of buttermilk. Stir and put in freezer. Stir
again at 20 minute intervals a couple times.

No extra bowl, no food processor, no cleanup, no heating,
no pre-chill before freezing. Excellent result.

Some people would add more sugar; an advantage here is
you avoid a too-sweet product if you wish.
