Whipped Yogurt Fluff - 5 Ingredients
I call this my “fluff” and it tastes like a fluffy greek yogurt cheesecake mousse. It is the perfect summer recipe and pairs so well with fresh berries or even some dark chocolate shavings on top. I’ve used this as a fruit dip, as a cake topping, and simply just a dessert on its own.
An electric mixer is required for that airy whipped texture and volume.
Although this doesn’t last long, it does keep well in the fridge for a few days. You may notice the texture changes a little but sometimes I find it tastes even better the next day.
All you need to do is gather equal parts of:
-Plain Greek Yogurt
-Whipping Cream (33%)
-Cream Cheese, softened *
In addition to these main ingredients, you will need a powdered sugar or sweetener, and vanilla.
*if you prefer a thick texture, or if you are a mega cheesecake fan, you can use more cream cheese.
This version is my preference:
1.5 cups cream cheese
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I use full fat)
1 cup liquid whipping cream (33%)
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup powdered sweetener of choice (use powdered allulose, monk fruit, swerve or similar for sugar-free version)
Instructions
I usually start with a brick of cream cheese and use that as my initial measurement and measure an equal part of both yogurt and whipping cream.
Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until it is creamy. Add the greek yogurt and beat the mixture together for about 30 seconds. Slowly add the whipping cream and continue to mix everything until the texture changes from smooth to fluffy. This took about two minutes with my standing mixer. The last two ingredients are 1 tsp of vanilla (or more) and your sweetener of choice. I suggest powdered sweeteners instead of granulated (monk fruit powder or allulose). Start with ¼ cup and increase as needed to taste.
Yes, you can use icing sugar but I personally don’t use this in my recipes.
Store in the fridge!
