Tips & Variations

- If you don’t have a kitchen torch, the microwave method works just as well and is quick.
- Add a drizzle of peanut butter or caramel sauce on top for added flavor.
Storage
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave if you want to soften the marshmallows again, but best enjoyed fresh for the perfect texture.

FAQs
Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?
Yes, but Greek yogurt provides a thicker and creamier texture that works best for this recipe. Regular yogurt may result in a thinner consistency.
What if I don’t have chocolate whey protein isolate?
You can substitute with any chocolate-flavored protein powder you have on hand, or omit it altogether for a less protein-dense treat.
