Description

A rich and creamy chocolate protein ice cream made with plant-based ingredients, delivering deep chocolate flavor and a smooth texture using a Ninja Creami or ice cream maker.


Ingredients

2 cups unsweetened almond milk

1/2 cup chocolate protein powder

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup sweetener of choice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt


Instructions

  1. Add almond milk, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender.
  2. Blend until completely smooth and no lumps remain.
  3. Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami container or ice cream maker container.
  4. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until fully solid.
  5. Process in the Ninja Creami according to manufacturer’s instructions until creamy and smooth.
  6. Scoop into bowls and serve immediately.

Notes

Adjust sweetener depending on the sweetness of your protein powder.

If texture is crumbly after processing, use the re-spin function.

Add mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts after the first spin.

Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping if frozen solid.
