Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Greek yogurt protein base
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tbsp light cream cheese Softened
  • 1 tbsp sugar-free vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 2 tbsp milk
Cookies-and-cream mix-in and topping
  • 4 Oreo cookies Crushed
  • 1 extra crushed Oreo cookies For topping
  • 1 whipped cream Optional

Method
 

Make the mousse
  1. Add plain Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, light cream cheese (softened), sugar-free vanilla pudding mix, maple syrup or honey, and milk to a mixing bowl. Mix everything together until fully combined.
  2. Beat the mixture until smooth and creamy, with no visible cream cheese lumps. Stop and scrape the sides as needed to keep the texture silky.
  3. Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies gently until evenly distributed. Use a slow motion so you keep the mousse creamy.
Chill and serve
  1. Divide the mousse between two serving glasses. Tap the glasses lightly on the counter to settle the texture.
  2. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to thicken. Chill until the mousse holds its shape when spooned.
  3. Top with additional crushed Oreo cookies and whipped cream (optional) before serving. Add right before eating to keep the cookie topping crisp.
  4. Serve chilled. Enjoy the cookies-and-cream flavor and creamy texture.

Notes

For the smoothest mousse, soften the light cream cheese fully before mixing and beat until the mixture looks uniform. Refrigerate covered for up to 2 days; it may thicken more as it chills. Freezing isn’t recommended because the yogurt texture can become grainy. Dietary swap: use dairy-free Greek yogurt and dairy-free cream cheese to make it dairy-free while keeping the same method.
