Decadent chocolate cottage cheese ice cream made with simple ingredients in the Ninja Creami machine

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat, I prefer Good Culture)
  • 2 tbsp chocolate instant pudding mix (sugar-free or regular)
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream

Directions

  1. 1

    First, add all of your ingredients to a large bowl. (You can also do this directly in the Ninja Creami pint container if you prefer). Using an immersion blender, blend the ingredients until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender you can use a tabletop blender or whisk rigorously by hand.

  2. 2

    Next, transfer your blended mixture into the pint container and freeze for 24 hours.

  3. 3

    Time to spin! Remove the frozen mixture from your freezer and put into the Ninja Creami machine. Spin using the ice cream setting one time. Each spin takes a couple of minutes.

  4. 4

    Run again using the re-spin button.

  5. 5

    Run a final third time using the re-spin button until your mixture is smooth and creamy like the picture below. Before the final spin, you can add a splash of milk if your mixture is looking a bit dry, too crumbly, or you want a creamier texture.

  6. 6

    When you’ve finished your final spin, test out the creaminess using a spoon. When your ice cream is smooth, creamy and no longer crumbly, it’s finished and ready to eat!
