đź“ś A Little History: From Dirt Cake to Protein Dessert

Traditional Oreo dirt cake dates back to American home baking in the 1980s—layers of chocolate pudding, whipped topping, and crushed cookies. It was playful, indulgent, and unapologetically rich.

This modern protein version keeps the soul of the dessert but adapts it for today’s nutrition-conscious lifestyle. By swapping traditional pudding and cream for high-protein and sugar-free alternatives, this recipe transforms a nostalgic classic into a smart, macro-friendly treat.
