Jello yogurt fluff started when I wanted something sweet and fruity without baking or waiting hours for dessert to chill. My first attempt was too runny and the gelatin flavor overpowered everything. After testing this three ways, I discovered that using thick Greek yogurt and whisking the powder directly into it created the best texture. The first few tries were close, but once I folded in a little whipped topping, the mixture finally turned airy and creamy. I finally landed on a fluffy dessert that’s sweet, light, and ready almost instantly.

- ½ cup fresh fruit optional topping
Instructions
- Add Greek yogurt to a mixing bowl.
- Sprinkle the Jello gelatin powder over the yogurt.

Notes

- Different Jello flavors change the color and fruit taste easily. Strawberry and raspberry work especially well.

- Stir gently before serving if it thickens during storage.
- Add mini marshmallows, crushed pineapple, or berries for a classic fluff salad variation.
