Description
Thick, creamy, and packed with chocolate flavor this quick Chocolate Protein Pudding takes just 5 minutes to make. High in protein, low in fat, and perfect for dessert, meal prep, or post-workout fuel.
Ingredients
1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat, low-fat, or vegan)
⅓ cup chocolate protein powder
1–2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1–2 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy)
3 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust to taste)
Splash of vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl, starting with 1 tablespoon each of milk and cocoa powder.
2. Whisk until smooth and no lumps remain.
3. Adjust to taste: add more milk to thin, more protein powder to thicken, or extra sweetener if desired.
4. Serve immediately plain or with whipped cream and berries.
Notes
Use any kind of Greek yogurt or a plant-based alternative.
Pea or whey protein both work; stevia-sweetened versions enhance flavor.
Add more cocoa powder for stronger chocolate flavor.
Optional sweeteners include additional maple syrup or liquid stevia.
Texture is thick, creamy, and mousse-like.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–5 days.
Freezing is not recommended due to texture changes.
