Recipe: Cheesecake Protein Fluff

Abby H.

Inspired by my love of cheesecake, and my need to increase my protein intake, I took to the internet to see what kinds of snacks I could come up with.

There are a lot of variations of this recipe floating around. Some people use cottage cheese instead of Greek Yogurt, but I strongly dislike cottage cheese.

I like to make a big batch at once, however, if this is not ideal for you, I will also include the recipe for the individual serving size below.

My go-to base recipe is:

Directions:

  1. Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
  3. Top with your choice of fruits, etc, and enjoy.

Serves 6-8.

Individual Serving:

Directions:

  1. Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
  3. Top with your choice of fruits, etc, and enjoy.

Serves 1.

The finished fluff, ready to be mixed with Fresh Strawberries!

Some of my favorite toppings include:

  • Sliced, fresh berries
  • Freeze-dried strawberries or mangoes (I like to crush them and mix them into the fluff)
  • Oreos or graham crackers
  • Brownies (the Fiber One Brownies are great because they are individually wrapped and portioned controlled)

Bonus Tip: If you are really looking to pump up your protein intake, I have seen some recipes that call for a scoop of your favorite protein powder too (usually vanilla or cheesecake flavor), and a splash of your favorite milk to help the protein powder incorporate). I have not done that because I drink already made protein shakes for breakfast.
