Ingredients
Ingredients
- 5 cups Greek yogurt (full-fat, plain or vanilla)
- 4 scoops chocolate protein powder (approximately 2 to 3 tablespoons per scoop)
- 3 to 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and maple syrup until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.
- Chill to Thicken: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate it for about 1 hour. This chilling period allows the pudding to thicken to a creamy consistency.
- Serve and Garnish: Once thickened, spoon the pudding into serving dishes. Optionally, top with whipped cream, shaved chocolate, or fresh berries for an extra special touch before serving.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a richer texture and creamier pudding.
- Adjust the cocoa powder amount to your preferred chocolate intensity.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey or agave nectar as sweeteners.
- For a colder dessert, chill the pudding longer or briefly freeze before serving.
- This pudding is a great high-protein dessert or snack, especially for active individuals.
