Preparation time: 45 min.
Comments

This jar protein dessert is an ideal choice for when you're craving something sweet but also want to watch the ingredients and nutrients in what you eat. The combination of curd cheese, yoghurt and protein means it's full of protein, keeping you fuller for longer and supporting muscle regeneration. It's a great snack or a sweet treat after a training session.

Gluten‑free sponge from buckwheat flavour brings complex carbs and fibre, whilst high‑quality ghee and cocoa beans bring fats. It's easy to make this dessert ahead and keep it in your fridge for later – practical, nutritionally‑balanced and still feels like a treat. 🍫
