Protein Fluff Ingredients
- 1 cup chocolate protein powder
- 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients on the countertop to have everything ready for blending.
- Blend Base Ingredients: In a blender, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, chocolate protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy to ensure even texture.
- Add Milk Gradually: While blending, gradually pour in the milk or non-dairy alternative until the consistency is thick yet pourable, perfect for fluffiness.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the fluff and add more honey or maple syrup if you prefer it sweeter, then blend again briefly to mix.
- Chill: Transfer the mixture to a bowl or individual serving dishes and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow it to set and enhance flavors.
- Serve: Serve the chilled chocolate protein fluff as is or topped with fresh fruit or nuts for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use low-fat cottage cheese for a lighter option, or full-fat for extra creaminess.
- Non-dairy milk alternatives such as almond, soy, or oat milk work well to keep it lactose-free.
- The chilling step is important to achieve the proper fluffy texture.
- Adjust sweetness to your taste preferences; natural sweeteners keep it cleaner and healthier.
- This recipe is great as a post-workout snack or healthy dessert.
