Notes

  • Use vanilla Greek yogurt for extra sweetness and flavor.
  • Any vanilla protein powder works well in this recipe.
  • Do not overbake the cheesecake. It should still have a slight jiggle when removed from the oven.
  • Letting the cheesecake chill properly helps it set and improves the texture.
