I grew up with AE milk in the fridge, especially their famous chocolate milk. If you’ve lived in Iowa at any time in your life, I don’t have to tell you how iconic they are around this area. AE Dairy was started back in the 1930’s and has always been known for their passion and their quality products. Through our partnership, I had the chance to visit AE Dairy a few weeks ago to see how their products are made, the family and the people behind the products, and I even got to sit in on their weekly taste test of different products!
Even though I’ve lived in Iowa and have grown up around AE Dairy, I had no idea that there are over 300 different products available!
After visiting the plant, I headed to the local grocery store to pick up as many different products that my store carried that I hadn’t tasted yet. One of my favorites became the Almond Créme Greek Yogurt. I love cooking and baking with Greek yogurt so I definitely knew I wanted to try my hand at a recipe with my new favorite flavor.
Almond Créme pairs perfectly with almonds, blueberries, and honey in these Greek yogurt cheesecakes. It’s a match made in heaven!

A little more about AE Dairy:
AE Dairy is a 3rd generation family-owned dairy that offers their products around the state of Iowa and in Kansas City. Their milk comes from long-standing relationships with local Iowa farmers. All AE milk is free from antibiotics, pesticides and added growth hormones. I have the awesome opportunity this year to create a variety of different recipes on behalf of AE Dairy!

Yum, I love honey and can’t wait to try these!
These look fantastic, will definately be trying this recipe.
I’ve recently added Greek Yogurt to my diet. This sounds like a yummy recipe for a dessert. I have to see if I can find AE products in my area or an almond creme Greek Yogurt alternative. Thanks for sharing!
OMG I love cheesecake, greek yoghurt and blueberries!! This is the perfect dessert for me. They look so delicious! Pinned it for later :)
Oh, I can’t get enough of how delicious these baby cakes look and sound. They are so adorable too!
wow, these look so yummy. If I didn’t already have cinnamon rolls for breakfast I would have to make these.
Love cheesecake, but never tried a greek yoghurt version before. These look so delicious & light too.
