Frequently Asked Questions

Can you mix chocolate protein powder with yogurt?

Chocolate protein powder sounds like a great addition to this yogurt-based dessert recipe to make the classic chocolate-peanut butter combo.

What should I add to yogurt to make it higher in protein?

The Cabot Reduced Fat Vanilla Bean Greek Yogurt used in this recipe provides 13 grams of protein (26% DV). Adding additional protein powder would bump this up a notch.

What do you add to yogurt for crunch?

Pre-made granola adds a lot of crunch to the top of this creamy yogurt dessert. Most granola contains a combination of sweetened oats, nuts and seeds that make a perfect crunchy topping. Using just nuts or seeds alone, or some other crunchy cereal will also do the trick.
