Feel free to vary the pudding mix but be sure to use the sugar free version for lowest carb counts. This fluff makes a delicious low carb dessert or low carb snack.

    What is ricotta fluff?

    Ricotta fluff is a quick, low carb dessert you can make anytime using ricotta cheese and pudding mix. Make sure to get the sugar free mix to help keep carb counts low.

    Why this recipe works:

    • Uses ricotta cheese- a creamy cheese that helps keep the texture of the fluff smooth and tasty.
    • Uses half and half rather than milk for a rich flavor and fewer carbs.

    The main ingredients:

    • Ricotta cheese- choose full fat or low fat as desired
    • Sugar free pudding mix- this mix adds the cheesecake flavor with few carbs. You may choose another flavor if you prefer.
    • Half and half- this will make the mixture smooth and creamy.

    Expert Tips

    1. Choose full fat ricotta cheese if calories are not a concern. Otherwise, you may choose low fat versions.
    2. You may choose half and half, whipping cream or milk as desired. I used half and half in this recipe.

        Hi Sara,
        Thanks for visiting Easyhealth Living. Sorry, I've never made this recipe without the cheesecake mix, so I'm not sure if it is possible.

      Hello, I noticed a bottle of vanilla extract in the photo but it is not in the recipe. Do I use vanilla extract?

      Does this stay stable so it can be used as a filling for cream puffs.
      How long will it stay stable?

        Hi, I'm not sure how long this will stay stable. It does have a fairly sturdy texture once it is prepared. Most pudding mixes contain stabilizers, so I am guessing it might work.
