Chocolate peanut butter protein fluff is a thick, chilled mixture made with Greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, peanut butter powder, and a small splash of almond milk. It has a pudding-like texture and can be prepared in just a few minutes before chilling.
The key is to add the almond milk gradually. Too much liquid can turn the mixture into a drink instead of a thick fluff, while too little may leave pockets of dry protein powder.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 teaspoon peanut butter powder
- A splash of almond milk
Instructions
- Place the Greek yogurt in a small mixing bowl.
- Add the chocolate protein powder and peanut butter powder.
- Stir slowly at first so the powders do not scatter, then mix more vigorously as they begin to combine with the yogurt.
- Add a very small splash of almond milk and continue stirring or whipping.
- If the mixture remains too dry, add another small amount of almond milk. Stop as soon as it becomes thick and smooth.
- Chill in the refrigerator, or place it in the freezer for approximately 10 minutes for a colder, firmer texture.
- Stir once more before serving.
Texture Tips
Protein powders absorb liquid differently, so the exact amount of almond milk will vary by brand. Add it in small increments rather than pouring freely. A small whisk can make the mixture lighter, while a spoon produces a denser pudding consistency.
Do not leave the bowl in the freezer until it becomes solid. The short chilling period is intended to firm the mixture while keeping it spoonable. Different yogurt and protein-powder brands can change the sweetness, thickness, and chocolate flavor, so taste the mixture before chilling.
Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl before chilling to make sure no dry powder remains.
