Tips for the Best Protein Cookies and Cream Ninja Creami Ice Cream

For the best results, use chilled milk and make sure your ice cream base is well mixed. Freezing for the full 24 hours is essential for the perfect texture. If it feels too icy after blending, you can run the re-spin mode again to make it creamier.

Recipe Variations

You can use different flavors of protein powder, like chocolate or cookies and cream, for a different taste. Try adding mix-ins like chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, or even other cookies for more variety.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use regular milk instead of Fairlife?
Yes, you can use regular milk, but Fairlife has more protein which makes this ice cream extra nutritious.

How can I make it dairy-free?
Use almond milk or coconut milk instead of regular milk. Make sure your protein powder is also dairy-free.

Can I skip the Oreos?
Absolutely! You can leave them out or substitute different cookies or add-ins to create your unique flavor.
