This chocolate protein fluff is the sweet tooth fix you actually feel good about. Ready in 1 minute, packed with protein, and perfect for late-night snacking.
In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except the chocolate chips.
Use a fork to mix until combined and fluffy.
Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to absorb, if you can. The mixture thickens up as it sits.
Mix again and fold in the chocolate chips if using.

Notes
The type of protein powder you choose will affect both the flavor and the texture of the snack (learn more about how to choose a protein powder). The fluff is best when a pea protein powder is used.A rice protein powder will have a chalkier taste, whereas a beef protein powder will give the recipe a stickier texture.The recipe makes a pretty large serving. If using as a bedtime snack, you may only want half.Eliminate the cacao powder by using a chocolate protein powder.
Adjust the texture of the chocolate protein fluff by adding more dairy-free milk if the fluff seems too dense. Add it slowly, 1 teaspoon at a time.
Use a fork to whisk the mixture, not a whisk. It's too thick for a whisk, and it will only get stuck.
Enjoy the vegan protein fluff immediately as it does not store well in the fridge.
