More Sweetness: If you have a sweet tooth, feel free to add a bit more sweetener or even a drizzle of sugar-free syrup to enhance the flavor.
Storage/Reheating
I recommend storing any leftover cheesecake fluff in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep well for up to 2-3 days. Since this dessert is best served cold, there’s no need to reheat it, but feel free to let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying it again.
FAQs
How can I make this recipe dairy-free?
To make this cheesecake fluff dairy-free, you can use a dairy-free protein powder and swap out the Greek yogurt for a plant-based yogurt, such as coconut or almond milk yogurt.
Can I use regular pudding mix instead of sugar-free?
Yes, you can use regular cheesecake pudding mix, but keep in mind this will increase the calorie and sugar content of the recipe.
How can I make the texture even fluffier?
If you want an even fluffier texture, try whipping the Greek yogurt and protein powder with a hand mixer or stand mixer for a few minutes to increase its lightness.
Can I freeze the cheesecake fluff?
While it’s best enjoyed fresh, you can freeze this dessert for a longer shelf life. Just make sure to store it in an airtight container and allow it to thaw in the fridge for a few hours before eating.

Yes! This recipe is low in carbs, especially if you use a sugar substitute and opt for the sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix, making it a great option for low-carb or keto diets.
