Protein Cherry Blossom Mousse

A delightful, protein-packed cherry mousse that combines fluffy marshmallow clouds with a sweet cherry twist, perfect for indulgence without guilt.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Greek yogurt or skyr
  • 1 cup light cream cheese
  • 1 scoop protein powder
  • 23 tablespoons cherry blossom syrup or cherry extract
  • 2 tablespoons natural sweetener (honey or maple syrup)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or whipped topping)

Instructions

  1. Blend the base: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt or skyr, light cream cheese, and protein powder. Use a hand mixer on medium speed to beat until creamy and smooth.
  2. Sweeten it up: Add your natural sweetener and cherry blossom syrup or extract into the bowl and mix until fully combined.
  3. Whip it good: In another bowl, whip your heavy cream or whipped topping until soft peaks form.
  4. Fold it together: Gently fold the whipped cream into your yogurt mixture, being careful not to deflate the cream.
  5. Let it rest: Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or a large serving bowl. Cover it and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 120 minutes to firm up.
  6. Garnish and serve: Once set, garnish with additional whipped cream, cherry slices, or edible flowers.

Notes

For a vegan version, replace dairy ingredients with plant-based alternatives like almond yogurt and aquafaba.
