Yiaourtoglyko (Greek Yoghurt Dessert)

This is the easiest dessert you can make in less than fifteen minutes and it is very delicious.  All you need to do is whip the heavy cream and combine it with the other ingredients.

If you are on a diet, skip the heavy cream and add more yoghurt with 2% fat.  You can eat it for breakfast, as a snack or for a light dinner.
