    To be honest, I've made this recipe a few times. And each time the frosting never made it onto a cake. It's a delicious indulgent treat on its own! Frosting shots are my new favorite thing. :)

    Ingredients

    Mixes best when ingredients are at room temperature

    • 1 package Neufchâtel cheese 8oz or 224g
    • 4 oz nonfat Greek yogurt ½ cup or 114g
    • ¼ cup smooth peanut butter 64g
    • ½ cup whey protein 40g
    • sprinkle of stevia optional

    Instructions

    • Mix Neufchâtel cheese, yogurt, and peanut butter until smooth.
    • Add whey and stevia. Mix well.
    • Enjoy! Store refrigerated.

    Notes

    Neufchâtel cheese is marketed as "⅓ less fat than cream cheese" and can be found next to cream cheese at most grocery stores.
    A note about substitutions: If you want to substitute a whey/casein blend like Quest protein powder, you may need a little liquid (any kind of milk would work well). Same holds true for pea protein (or pea blends), although I would start with only ¼ cup pea protein and see how the flavor and texture are as you add more.
