Ingredients List (High-Protein Adaptation)
1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt (provides creaminess and a high-protein base)
1 package (1 oz) sugar-free instant cheesecake pudding mix (adds thick, rich cheesecake flavor without excess sugar)
1 container (8 oz) low-fat whipped topping (gives the dessert its light and airy texture)
4–5 Oreo Thins or sugar-free chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed (adds a chocolatey crunch while controlling calories)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Make the Creamy Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix.
Stir slowly at first to avoid clumps, then whisk until smooth and thick.
This base is where most of your protein comes from — the Greek yogurt is creamy, slightly tangy, and blends perfectly with the pudding mix for that cheesecake-like richness.
2️⃣ Fold in the Fluff
Add the low-fat whipped topping to the bowl.
Using a rubber spatula, fold the whipped topping into the yogurt mixture — don’t stir aggressively; you want to keep it fluffy.
This is what gives the dessert that cloud-like texture.
3️⃣ Add the Crunch Factor
Crush the Oreos into small chunks — you want both fine crumbs for flavor and larger chunks for texture.
Stir most of the crushed Oreos into the mixture, reserving a small handful for garnish.
4️⃣ Chill & Garnish
Spoon the mixture evenly into dessert cups or a large serving bowl.
Sprinkle the remaining Oreo crumbs over the top and, if desired, add one whole Oreo Thin to each serving for presentation.
Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes to let flavors blend and texture firm up.

Pro Tips for Perfect Protein Oreo Fluff

Fold, Don’t Stir – Preserves fluffiness.
Chill Before Serving – Enhances texture and allows flavors to blend.
Use Fresh Oreos – Stale cookies won’t give the same satisfying crunch.
