📝 Ingredients
- 8 oz (225 g) reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 scoop (30 g) vanilla whey protein powder (choose one that mixes smoothly)
- 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol or preferred low-carb sweetener (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest (optional for extra freshness)
- ¾ cup fresh blueberries
- ½ cup light whipped topping (or homemade whipped heavy cream for keto)
- Fresh blueberries for garnish (optional)
- Mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Directions
- Prepare the base (2 minutes)
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy. - Mix the protein ingredients (2 minutes)
Add the Greek yogurt, protein powder, sweetener, vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Continue mixing on medium speed until silky with no visible lumps. - Fold in whipped topping (1 minute)
Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Avoid overmixing to maintain volume. - Add blueberries (1 minute)
Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries so they remain whole and evenly distributed throughout the fluff. - Chill (30 minutes)
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The texture should become thicker, creamier, and hold its shape when scooped. - Serve
Spoon into serving glasses and garnish with extra blueberries and mint if desired.
