5. Prep & Tools Needed
Gather: medium mixing bowl, electric hand mixer or whisk, measuring spoons/cups, rubber spatula, serving glasses or bowls. Chill fluff in fridge for thick texture.
6. Step 1 – Prepare Ingredients
Ensure all powdered items are spooned out and leveled. Mix dry ingredients (cocoa, peanut butter powder, protein powder, sweetener) in a small bowl to prevent clumping.
7. Step 2 – Combine Yogurt & Flavorings
In your main mixing bowl, add Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir briefly to distribute evenly.
8. Step 3 – Add Dry Mix
Add the pre-mixed dry ingredients to yogurt. This method ensures even distribution and smooth texture in the final fluff.
9. Step 4 – Whisk Until Smooth
Use an electric mixer or whisk vigorously for 1–2 minutes until glossy and uniform—no powder streaks should remain.
10. Step 5 – Taste & Sweeten
Taste the fluff and adjust sweetness—add more sweetener if needed in tablespoon increments. Continue mixing briefly after adjustments.
11. Step 6 – Optional Add‑Ins
Gently fold in mini sugar-free chocolate chips (adds 1 SmartPoint per serving). These create delightful chocolate bites.
12. Step 7 – Chill to Set
Cover the bowl and refrigerate at least 30 minutes to thicken. Overnight chilling enhances texture and flavor melding.
13. Step 8 – Portion & Serve
Divide fluff into four equal servings (½ cup each). Optionally garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder or peanut flour for visual appeal.
