Whether you’re looking for a post-workout snack, a healthy dessert, or just a fun way to get more protein, this protein fluff is the perfect option!
Ingredients
1 scoop chocolate protein powder (whey, plant-based, or your preferred type)
1/2 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt (non-fat or low-fat)
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup water or unsweetened almond milk (adjust for consistency)
Pinch of salt
1/4 cup whipped topping (optional, for extra fluffiness)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate protein powder, Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Gradually add in the water or almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing as you go. This helps achieve the desired fluffy consistency.
- For an extra smooth texture, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the mixture on high for 1-2 minutes until it becomes light and airy.
- If you’d like a little extra sweetness, add honey or maple syrup to taste, then mix again.
- Once the mixture has reached a fluffy, mousse-like texture, fold in the whipped topping (if using) for added creaminess and volume.
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes for a cooler, more firm consistency.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or a few chocolate chips for an extra indulgent touch!
Notes
You can top your protein fluff with sliced bananas, strawberries, or berries for added flavor and a nutritional boost.
Spice things up with a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or chili powder for a little kick.
Stir in a tablespoon of peanut butter for a peanut butter cup-inspired protein fluff.
For a dairy-free version, use plant-based protein powder and non-dairy yogurt, such as coconut or almond-based yogurt.
To make it even more protein-packed, add an extra scoop of protein powder.
