Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
  • 2-4 tbsp milk (any kind)
  • 1-2 tbsp cocoa powder (optional)
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • fresh berries (optional topping)
  • granola (optional topping)
  • nut butter (optional topping)
  • dark chocolate chips (optional topping)

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • spoon or whisk

Method
 

  1. Add Greek yogurt and protein powder to a mixing bowl.
  2. Pour in 2 tablespoons of milk and stir until smooth.
  3. Add more milk gradually until you reach a pudding-like consistency.
  4. Mix in cocoa powder, sweetener, and vanilla extract if using.
  5. Stir well until fully combined and creamy.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness as needed.
  7. Serve immediately or chill for 20–30 minutes for a thicker texture.

Notes

Use a protein powder you enjoy for best flavor. Add milk gradually to control thickness and avoid a runny texture. Stir thoroughly to prevent clumps. Chill before serving for a thicker, richer consistency. Full-fat yogurt creates the creamiest result.
