Main Ingredients
- 6 Oreo Cookies, crushed
- 1 scoop Vanilla or Chocolate Protein Powder
- 1 cup Greek Yogurt or Cottage Cheese
- 1/4 cup Milk or Almond Milk
- 1–2 tablespoons Sweetener (Honey, Maple Syrup, or Stevia), to taste
- Whipped Cream or Whipped Topping (optional, for garnish)
- Crush the Oreos: Place Oreo cookies in a sealed bag or bowl and crush them into small pieces using a rolling pin or fork, ensuring a combination of fine crumbs and small chunks for texture.
- Prepare the Creamy Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the protein powder, Greek yogurt (or alternative), and a splash of milk. Stir thoroughly until smooth and creamy without lumps.
- Sweeten to Taste: Gradually add your preferred sweetener, tasting as you go, to reach your desired level of sweetness that complements the Oreo flavor.
- Fold in the Oreos: Gently fold the crushed Oreos into the creamy mixture, distributing them evenly without overmixing to maintain texture.
- Chill and Serve: Transfer the mixture into serving dishes and chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to become fluffy. Optionally, top with whipped cream and additional crushed Oreos before serving.
Notes
- Crush Oreos to a mix of fine crumbs and chunks for the best texture contrast.
- Use cold yogurt and milk to keep the dessert stable and refreshing.
- Whip the base mixture before folding in Oreos for an extra fluffy texture.
- Adjust sweetness gradually to avoid overpowering the natural Oreo and protein flavors.
- Serve chilled for optimal taste and texture.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt and use plant-based protein powder.
- Mix in peanut butter, berries, cocoa, espresso, or keto-friendly sweeteners to customize flavors.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; avoid reheating.
