Reese’s Protein Cheesecake

Indulge in the decadent delight of Reese's Protein Cheesecake. Begin by blending old-fashioned oats, coconut flour, and pink salt with melted coconut oil and milk. For the creamy filling, mix low-fat cottage cheese with plain Greek yogurt or vanilla-flavored Chobani. Add vanilla extract and monk fruit sweetener for a touch of sweetness. Incorporate chocolate, vanilla, or peanut butter-flavored protein powder and unsweetened cocoa or cacao powder for rich flavor. Finally, swirl natural peanut butter on top for an irresistible finish.
