Main Ingredients
- 1 cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt
- 4 oz. low-fat or regular cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp. instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 tbsp. vanilla-flavored whey protein powder
- 1/4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 6 Oreo Thins, finely crushed, plus whole Oreos for topping
- Mix the base: In a medium bowl, use a handheld mixer on medium speed to beat together the Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, instant vanilla pudding mix, vanilla protein powder, and pure vanilla extract until medium peaks form, which should take about 2 minutes.
- Add crushed Oreos: Fold the finely crushed Oreo Thins into the mixture by beating on low speed for about 15 seconds until just combined.
- Chill the mixture: Transfer the blended mixture into an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours to allow it to set and thicken properly.
- Serve and garnish: Divide the chilled cheesecake mixture among serving bowls and garnish each bowl with whole Oreo cookies for a decorative and crunchy topping.
Notes
- For a thicker consistency, refrigerate longer than 3 hours if preferred.
- Use low-fat or regular cream cheese depending on desired richness and calorie content.
- You can swap Oreo Thins with regular Oreos for a chunkier texture.
- This dessert is best served chilled and eaten within 24 hours for optimal freshness.
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened at room temperature to facilitate easy mixing.
