Ingredients

1 & 3/4 cups cottage cheese full-fat or 2%
1/2 cup milk
2-3 tbsp maple syrup monkfruit, honey, or agave (adjust to your sweetness preference)
1 ½ tsp vanilla bean paste or sub with 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Instructions

In your Ninja Creami Deluxe container, add cottage cheese, your sweetener, vanilla bean paste, and salt. (Make sure your mixture stays below the max fill line.)
1 & 3/4 cups cottage cheese, 1/2 cup milk, 2-3 tbsp maple syrup, 1 ½ tsp vanilla bean paste, Pinch of salt
Use an immersion blender to blend until completely smooth and creamy. Scrape the sides as needed to ensure even texture.
Smooth the top with a spoon or spatula, secure the lid, and freeze flat for at least 24 hours.
Insert into your Ninja Creami Deluxe and select the Lite Ice Cream setting.
If the texture is crumbly, re-spin until it’s smooth and scoopable.
Fold in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or cookie crumbles using the Mix-In cycle for a fun twist! You can also do this by using the mix-in feature in your Ninja Creami.

Notes

Tips:
• Vanilla bean paste gives a rich, gourmet flavor and those pretty little specks!
• Want it even creamier? Use full-fat cottage cheese or add a splash of heavy cream before blending.
• Turn it into cookies & cream by mixing in crushed sandwich cookies after the spin.
