Instructions

In a blender, add the milk, protein powder, frozen raspberries, Greek yogurt (or cream cheese), frozen banana, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
Blend on high for about 30 seconds, or until the mixture is thick and creamy.
Pour the creamy shake into a tall glass.
Top the shake with crushed graham crackers, whipped cream, and extra raspberries for a finishing touch.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, swap Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt and use almond or oat milk.
If you prefer extra creaminess, add ½ tablespoon of cream cheese for a richer cheesecake taste.
To make it sweeter, add honey, maple syrup, or sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit.
For a crunchy texture, top with toasted almonds or cacao nibs.
Frozen raspberries help thicken the shake, but fresh ones can be used if you prefer.
If you don’t have protein powder, substitute with extra Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for a creamy texture, though it will have less protein.
Store any leftover shake in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking as it may thicken over time.
