Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese (blended smooth)
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored whey/casein protein powder
  • 1/4 cup zero-calorie sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit blend)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional, for extra stability)
  • 2 tablespoons water or unsweetened almond milk (as needed)
  • Optional topping: 1/4 cup fresh berries

Instructions

  1. Place the cottage cheese in a small food processor or blender. Blend until completely smooth, resembling a thick cream. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the smooth cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, protein powder, zero-calorie sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
  3. Use a hand mixer or whisk to beat the mixture until it becomes light and fluffy. Start on low speed and gradually increase to medium-high.
  4. If the mixture seems too thick to whip, add the water or almond milk one teaspoon at a time until you reach a light, mousse-like consistency. If using, mix in the xanthan gum quickly to stabilize the fluff.
  5. Spoon the high protein cheesecake fluff into two small serving glasses or bowls to create parfaits.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the mixture to set slightly.
  7. Top with fresh berries before serving your guilt-free dessert fluff.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use a casein protein powder, as it tends to thicken and create a creamier texture similar to traditional cheesecake filling.
  • If you prefer a dip texture over a parfait, reduce the added liquid by half.
  • You can substitute the lemon juice with a few drops of cheesecake extract if you have it.
