Tips & Tricks
Whip it well. Mixing for a full 3 minutes helps create that light, fluffy texture.
Fold gently. This keeps the mixture airy when adding the whipped topping.
Adjust sweetness. Use flavored protein powder or pudding mix to change the taste.
Chill for best texture. A short time in the fridge makes it even thicker and creamier.
Flavor Variations
- Swap cherry filling for strawberry, blueberry, or raspberry
- Use chocolate protein powder and pudding for a chocolate version
