Questions

Can I make Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Mousse dairy-free?

Yes. The dairy in this entry is 2 cups plain full-fat Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup whole milk (or milk of choice). Swap the yogurt for an unsweetened coconut or soy yogurt; the milk for unsweetened oat or soy milk. The richness shifts slightly, but the method does not change.

Can I make Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Mousse ahead?

Yes, it takes well to being made ahead. Keep it covered in the refrigerator and eat it within three days.

Can I halve or double Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Mousse?

Yes. As written it serves 4. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. Doubled, blend in batches rather than overfilling the jar.
