Ingredients
- 1 cup 2% milk
- 0.75 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sweetener
Cooking instructions
- Add the milk, Greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, and sweetener to a blender. Blend until completely smooth, about 30 seconds. (about 1 min)
- Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, keeping it below the maximum-fill line. Secure the lid and freeze on a level surface for at least 24 hours. (about 1440 min) — 0°F (-18°C) or colder
- Remove the pint from the freezer and take off the lid. Place it in the Creami outer bowl, attach the paddle, and select the Light Ice Cream program. (about 3 min)
- If the ice cream looks crumbly after spinning, add 1 tablespoon milk to the center and run the Respin program. Repeat once if needed, until creamy. (about 3 min)
- Scoop and serve immediately. Refreeze leftovers in the pint and run the Light Ice Cream or Respin program again before serving. (about 2 min)
