Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 scoop (25-30 g) chocolate protein powder
  • 3–4 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar-free instant pudding mix (optional)
  • 1 low-calorie cookie, crushed
  • Sweetener to taste (stevia or monk fruit)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Mix Protein Base: In a bowl, combine the chocolate protein powder, plain Greek yogurt, and 3 tablespoons of unsweetened almond milk. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Cocoa and Sweetness: Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, and your preferred sweetener (such as stevia or monk fruit) to the bowl. Mix well and adjust the sweetness according to your taste.
  3. Thicken the Pudding: Stir in the sugar-free instant pudding mix if using. Allow the mixture to sit for 1 to 2 minutes so it can thicken properly.
  4. Layer the Dirt Cup: Crush the low-calorie cookie. In a serving cup, layer half of the crushed cookie at the bottom, spoon the pudding mixture over it, then top with the remaining crushed cookie crumbs to resemble ‘dirt.’
  5. Chill and Serve: For best texture and flavor, chill the assembled dirt cup in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Alternatively, you can serve it immediately if preferred.

Notes

  • Using plain Greek yogurt adds creaminess and protein without extra sugar.
  • Sweetener can be adjusted or omitted depending on protein powder sweetness.
  • The sugar-free instant pudding mix is optional but helps thicken the dessert naturally.
  • Low-calorie cookies keep the dessert guilt-free and crunchy.
  • Chilling enhances texture but serving immediately is fine if short on time.
