Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to the Ninja Creami pint tub.
    110 g Fat free cottage cheese, 110 g 0% Fat Free Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract, 2 tablespoon Maple syrup, 3 tablespoon Cocoa powder, 250 ml Skim milk
  • Mix well. We used a milk frother for this. There may still be some of the cottage cheese curds, but they will go when the ice cream is spun.
  • Put the lid onto the pint container and freeze for 24 hours.
  • Remove the lid and put the frozen tub into the outer bowl and put on the outer bowl lid. Put into the Ninja Creami machine and set to the frozen Yogurt setting and spin. This may result in a crumbly texture.
  • Replace the tub in the machine and press Respin. This may take 1-2 more re-spins to achieve the perfect creamy consistancy.
  • Add any mix-ins and return the tub to the machine. Press the mix-ins button.

Notes

  • If you wanted to make this a little extra creamy, without using full fat cottage cheese, yogurt and milk, then just add a couple of tablespoons of heavy cream (double cream) to the mixture.
  • Make sure to use small curd cottage cheese so that it is easy to blend.
  • To combine everything together easier, you can use a milk frother or use a blender to blend everything first.
  • This is a fairly runny ice cream, as we didn't want to add anything like pudding mix that I see in so many Creami recipes. So, just keep that in mind that you will need to serve it quickly, or it can go back in the freezer to harden up.
  • When putting the ingredients into the pint container, don't exceed the max fill line.
