24 oz cream cheese or vegan cream cheese
2 cups Greek yogurt or dairy-free alternative
½ cup protein powder
⅔ cup sweetener of choice
2½ tsp pure vanilla extract
Optional: crust of your choice (graham cracker, almond flour, etc.)
Preheat oven to 350°F. Fill a baking pan ⅔ full with water and place it on the lower oven rack.
Bring cream cheese to room temp.
Prepare your crust in a 9-inch springform pan, if using.
Blend all ingredients until smooth and pour into the pan.
Bake for 30 minutes. Do not open the oven—just turn off the heat and let sit 5 more minutes.
Let cool on the counter, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours to firm up.
