Greek Yogurt Pudding Fluff – Creamy High-Protein Dessert in 5 Minutes

Greek yogurt pudding fluff started as one of those quick dessert fixes when I wanted something sweet but didn’t want to bake. My first attempt was overly thick and oddly chalky from too much pudding mix. The first few tries felt close but not quite right. After testing this three ways, I discovered that the ratio of yogurt to pudding mix made all the difference. Once I lightened it with a little milk and folded everything slowly, the texture finally turned smooth, fluffy, and spoonable, exactly the kind of easy treat I keep coming back to.
