Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • Cream cheese – 8 oz (softened)
  • Greek yogurt – 1 cup
  • Whey protein powder – 1/2 cup
  • Sweetener of choice – 2-3 tbsp (adjust to taste)
  • Vanilla extract – 1 tsp
  • Milk or milk alternative – 2-4 tbsp (to adjust consistency)

Instructions

  1. Soften the Cream Cheese: Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to soften, ensuring a smooth blend without lumps.
  2. Combine Base Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt until creamy and well combined, creating the perfect cheesecake texture.
  3. Add Protein Powder and Sweetener: Slowly mix in your favorite whey protein powder and the sweetener, adjusting the amount to taste and stirring until fully incorporated without clumps.
  4. Blend in Vanilla and Milk: Add vanilla extract and milk or your preferred milk alternative, stirring gently to reach a light, fluffy consistency that’s easy to spoon or pipe.
  5. Chill and Fluff: Refrigerate the mixture for at least an hour to allow flavors to meld. Before serving, give it a gentle whisk to restore that signature fluffiness.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients to ensure smooth mixing without lumps or grainy textures.
  • Choose a mild-flavored protein powder to keep the cheesecake taste prominent without bitter or artificial notes.
  • Adjust thickness by adding milk gradually, based on your preferred fluff texture.
  • Sweeten gradually to avoid over-sweetness; start with less and add more as needed.
  • Beat well just before serving to maintain airy, creamy consistency for delightful bites.
