Ingredients

  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt - full-fat or fat-free
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder - or another flavor of your choice
  • 2 cookies - I use biscoff but any crunchy cookie will work, or graham crackers

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl (like a cereal bowl), mix together the yogurt and protein powder.
    ¾ cup Greek yogurt, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • Pour the mixture into your serving bowl. I use a small dip/snack bowl.
  • Insert the cookies vertically into the yogurt mixture. I like to break mine apart to distribute them more evenly throughout the cheesecake.
    2 cookies
  • Refrigerate for at least two hours.
  • Top with more crushed cookies if desired and enjoy!

Notes

  • Stir the protein powder in gradually. No lumps.
  • Full 2-hour chill. Rushing leaves cookies crunchy.
  • Thick strained yogurt only, or it won't set.
  • Too thick? A splash of milk loosens it.
