  • Serving bowl

🛒 Ingredients

Balanced for creaminess, protein, and classic s’mores flavor.

Chocolate Protein Base

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons rolled oats or oat flour

  • 1 pinch salt

S’mores-Style Toppings

👩‍🍳 Directions

Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, oats (or oat flour), and salt. Stir well to break up any clumps.

If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk. If too thin, heat for an additional 15–20 seconds.

Step 5: Transfer to Serving Bowl
Pour the warm chocolate protein base into a serving bowl and smooth the top.

Step 6: Add Creamy Layer
Spoon the yogurt over the top and gently swirl it into the chocolate base.
