Ingredients
- 2 cups non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 cup sugar-free whipped topping
- 1 tablespoon sugar-free vanilla pudding mix
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1 packet calorie-free sweetener (optional)
- Fresh berries for garnish (optional)
Equipment Needed
- Large mixing bowl
- Electric hand mixer
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Rubber spatula
- Serving bowls
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Place the non-fat Greek yogurt into a large mixing bowl. Add the vanilla extract and lemon juice. Stir gently until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Add Flavor
Sprinkle the sugar-free vanilla pudding mix into the yogurt mixture. This ingredient helps stabilize the fluff and creates a thicker, more luxurious texture. Mix thoroughly until fully incorporated.
Step 3: Sweeten if Desired
Taste the mixture. If you prefer a sweeter dessert, add the calorie-free sweetener. Stir until dissolved.
Step 4: Incorporate the Whipped Topping
Fold the sugar-free whipped topping into the yogurt mixture using a rubber spatula. Work slowly to maintain as much air as possible in the mixture. This step is what gives the fluff its signature light and airy consistency.
Step 5: Blend with Ice
Add the ice cubes and use an electric hand mixer on medium speed for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. The mixture will become noticeably lighter, thicker, and fluffier.
Step 6: Chill
Transfer the fluff into serving bowls. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to develop and the texture to firm up slightly.
Step 7: Garnish and Serve
Remove from the refrigerator and top with fresh berries if desired. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
