I love simple and quick sweet treats. The kind of snacks or desserts you don’t have to turn the oven on for. Or wait 3 hours until they are ready. This fluff recipe is everything the name suggests: a fluffy, airy protein-rich mousse like delight. It tastes just like the filling of a no-bake cheesecake.

It’s beyond delicious – sweet, tangy, and lemon-rich with a creamy, decadent mouthfeel. If you are looking for a dessert that tastes like cheesecake but feels light, whipped and totally spoonable – this protein cheesecake fluff is it. You can eat this delicious fluff on its own alone right out of the bowl, or use it as a dip for fresh berries. Or top with whipped cream and chopped nuts.

New amazing new food trends are being created on internet social media websites and some of them go viral and get loads of attention. This is one of those that has gone viral. I have tried a few of these recipes recently and they do not disappoint. Its not every day that a food trend exceeds my expectations, but this cheesecake protein fluff recipe is definitely a winner.

Each serving has over 24 grams of protein, making it perfect for a post-dinner treat, mid-afternoon snack, or even a quick breakfast. The yogurt and protein powder do the heavy lifting here, while the cream cheese brings in that classic cheesecake flavor and creaminess.

This is a dessert that you can whip up on the spot with minimal prep. When you pipe it into dessert cups, it looks impressive enough to serve at a dinner party. Zesty, creamy and gently sweet. Sort of like a mixture between fluffy cheesecake and mousse, so tasty and cute looking your guests will never guess it is totally healthy!

This recipe also uses healthier ingredients like yogurt, less cream cheese and just a small amount of sweetener instead of heavy cream and an entire block of cream cheese like you will often find in cheesecake inspired recipes. (Don’t get me wrong, there’s a time and a place for those too!).
