Cheesecake Yogurt (2 Ingredients, High Protein & No Baking!)

If you love cheesecake but don’t love the effort (or the waiting), this one’s for you. This cheesecake yogurt is made with just two ingredients—vanilla Greek yogurt and Biscoff cookies—and somehow transforms overnight into something that tastes shockingly close to real cheesecake.

It’s creamy, lightly sweet, high in protein, and honestly feels like there’s no way it can be so easy to make.

I’ve been seeing this viral yogurt dessert all over Instagram lately, so I had to try it and I was blown away! It really does taste like cheesecake and I didn’t even feel guilty eating it because it’s so high in protein. It’s not everyday that you find a delicious high protein dessert recipe!

Why This Cheesecake Yogurt Works

The cookies soften as they sit in the yogurt, creating that classic cheesecake crust-meets-filling texture. The graham cracker crust always was my favorite part of a cheesecake! The tanginess of Greek yogurt mimics cream cheese, while the Biscoff adds sweetness and depth. You don’t need a blender or a water bath. There’s no baking, and it couldn’t be easier!

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Vanilla Greek Yogurt: Thick, creamy, and high-protein, this is the base that gives the yogurt its cheesecake-like texture and tangy sweetness.
  • PRO TIP: Our favorite yogurts for this recipe are Oikos Pro or Siggi’s. We didn’t love it as much with Chobani or Greek Gods.
• Biscoff Cookies: Softened in the yogurt, these spiced cookies create that rich, caramel-like cheesecake flavor.

How to Make Yogurt Cheesecake

There’s not much to this recipe, but it does take some patience. Here are the steps:

1. Spoon: Measure your yogurt and put it into a container that you can seal with a lid.
2. Cookies: Stick the cookies into the yogurt so that they are mostly submerged. Try to place the cookies so that they aren’t touching each other so they are covered on all sides by yogurt.
3. Refrigerate: Let the yogurt with the cookies refrigerate for 5 hours or overnight. Remove from the fridge and enjoy!

Fun Variations to Try

• Add crushed berries on top
• Drizzle with honey
• Swap Biscoff for graham crackers or Nilla Wafers
• Use chocolate Greek yogurt for all our chocolate lovers

Storing Cheesecake Yogurt

These yogurt cups are meant to be eaten in one sitting, so there shouldn’t be any leftovers, but if for some reason there are leftovers, they should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep for 2-3 days but the cookies will get more and more soft.

This cheesecake yogurt is proof that simple can still be exciting. Two ingredients, a little patience, and suddenly you’ve got a creamy, cheesecake-style treat that works just as well for a high protein breakfast, dessert, or a late-night snack. Once you try it, don’t be surprised if you start keeping Biscoff cookies on hand just in case.
