- Add toppings like dark chocolate chips, berries, or nuts for extra flavor!
Notes
✔️ Use a high-quality protein powder – Choose whey, plant-based, or casein protein for the best results.
✔️ Chill overnight – This enhances flavor and texture.
✔️ Adjust sweetness as needed – Taste before chilling and modify accordingly.
