Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (250 g) Greek yogurt – full fat for a creamier texture or low fat for a lighter option
- ½ cup (40 g) protein powder – choose chocolate, vanilla, or unflavored
- 1–2 tbsp nut butter (like almond or peanut butter) – adds creaminess and healthy fats
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder (optional) – for a richer chocolate taste
- 1–2 tbsp maple syrup or honey – adjust to taste and protein powder flavor

Optional Add-Ins:
- ½ tsp vanilla extract – for extra sweetness and depth

Instructions
