Here’s a great Strawberry Cheesecake Protein Fluff recipe—creamy, tangy, and packed with protein without baking! It’s like a light, protein‑boosted version of strawberry cheesecake in fluff form. (Janelle Rohner)
🍓 Strawberry Cheesecake Protein Fluff (No‑Bake, High‑Protein)
🥣 Ingredients (approx. 4–6 servings)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 oz plain Greek yogurt
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (whey or plant‑based)
- ~1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz heavy whipping cream
- Optional sweetener (like honey, maple syrup, or a low‑calorie sweetener) to taste
(This builds on a base of cream cheese and Greek yogurt for creamy cheesecake flavor with added protein from powder.) (I Hacked Diabetes)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Whip the cream:
Pour the heavy cream into a large bowl and whip with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. - Blend base:
In a blender or food processor, combine cream cheese, Greek yogurt, protein powder, vanilla, and strawberries. Blend until smooth and fully mixed. - Fold together:
Gently fold the whipped cream into the blended mixture until well combined and airy. - Adjust sweetness:
Taste, then add sweetener if desired and fold gently again. - Chill & serve:
Chill in the fridge 15–30 minutes to firm up slightly. Serve in bowls or parfait glasses, and top with extra diced strawberries.
🧠 Tips & Variations
- Smoothest texture: Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened before blending.
- Extra protein: Swap part of the Greek yogurt for more protein powder, or use a high‑protein Greek yogurt.
- Low‑carb option: Use a sugar‑free sweetener and unsweetened almond milk in place of some dairy.
- Fruit mix‑ins: Add blueberries or raspberries for extra color and flavor. (Wellness Hub)
📊 Approximate Nutrition (per serving, varies by ingredients)
- Protein: ~7–10 g (or more with extra powder)
- Carbs: Low if using Greek yogurt + berries
- Texture: Light, creamy, dessert‑like
This type of protein fluff combines real dairy and protein powder for a satisfying treat that tastes much richer than it is. (I Hacked Diabetes)
