How to Make Protein Ice Cream in the Ninja Creami

If you’ve been searching for a protein ice cream recipe that doesn’t taste like someone whispered “strawberry” into a block of ice, you’ve officially found it. This Chocolate Covered Strawberry Protein Ninja Creami is creamy, packed with real strawberry flavor, loaded with chocolatey goodness, and somehow still delivers 34 grams of protein per serving. I don’t ask a lot from dessert, but tasting like dessert is pretty high on the list.

Every bite tastes like a chocolate-covered strawberry took a vacation inside a pint of vanilla ice cream. It’s rich, creamy, ridiculously satisfying, and proof that eating more protein doesn’t mean you have to break up with your sweet tooth. Honestly, the hardest part of this recipe is pretending you’re only making it for “meal prep.”

For this protein ice cream, you will need:

Ingredients

Mix-Ins

  • 2 tablespoons no-sugar-added chocolate chips

Optional Toppings

  • Sugar-free whipped topping
  • Fresh strawberries
  • Sugar-free strawberry syrup drizzle

Ingredients

  • Ice Cream Base
  • 1/2 cup Ultra Filtered Milk 2%
  • 1 Scoop Creamy Vanilla Isopure Protein Powder
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix
  • 4 ¼ tsp sugar-free marshmallow syrup
  • 3 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons Maple Grove Farms Sugar Free syrup (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1 tbs vanilla bean paste
  • Mix-Ins
  • 2 tablespoons no-sugar-added chocolate chips (white or Chocolate)
  • Optional Toppings

Instructions

  1. Add Ultra-Filtered milk, Strawberry Spylt, frozen strawberries, sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix, marshmallow syrup, maple syrup, and sea salt to a blender.
  2. Blend until completely smooth and no strawberry chunks remain.
  3. Pour the mixture into 2 Ninja Creami pint containers. Do not fill past the max fill line. There may be some left over; I drink mine as a super yummy shake.
  4. Freeze for at least 24 hours on a level surface.
  5. Remove from the freezer and process using the Lite Ice Cream setting.
  6. If the texture appears crumbly after the first spin, add a small splash of Fairlife milk and use the Re-Spin function.
  7. Create a well in the center of the ice cream and add the no-sugar-added chocolate chips.
  8. Process using the Mix-In setting.
  9. Serve immediately or top with sugar-free whipped topping, fresh strawberries, and a drizzle of sugar-free strawberry syrup for an extra indulgent treat

Notes

Andi's Tip

Don't skip the pinch of sea salt. It sounds strange in strawberry ice cream, but it helps balance the sweetness and makes the vanilla, cheesecake, and strawberry flavors pop.
