Step-by-Step Ninja Creami Cheesecake Ice Cream Instructions

1. Blend the base. Add cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, almond milk, protein powder, pudding mix, lemon juice, vanilla, salt, and sweetener into a blender. Blend until completely smooth and lump-free (60-90 seconds).
2. Freeze Pour mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container. Level the top. Freeze upright for 24 hours until fully solid.
3. First Spin: Install the frozen pint into the Ninja Creami. Select “Ice Cream” mode. If powdery, add 1-2 tbsp milk and re-spin on “Re-spin” until creamy.
4. Add Mix-ins. Create a well in the center. Add crushed graham crackers or desired toppings. Select the “Mix-in” function.
5. Serve or Store: Enjoy immediately for soft-serve texture or freeze for 1-2 hours for scoopable firmness.

Pro Tips for Best Texture:

• Use room-temperature ingredients before blending for a smoother base.
• Don’t overfill the pint—leave ½ inch space at the top.
• For ultra-creamy results, do a second re-spin with a splash of milk if needed.
• Store leftovers in the same pint with a lid; re-spin before eating if frozen hard.

High Protein Variations

Higher Protein Version: Replace almond milk with Fairlife ultra-filtered milk and increase protein powder to 45g. Adds ~10g extra protein.

Lower Calorie / Cutting Version: Use non-fat Greek yogurt, skip the optional cream cheese, and use only 2 tbsp pudding mix. Drops calories significantly.

Keto / Low Carb Version: Use full-fat cottage cheese + heavy cream instead of milk. Swap pudding mix for sugar-free version and add xanthan gum (¼ tsp) for thickness.

Strawberry Cheesecake: Add ½ cup fresh or frozen strawberries to the base blend + extra strawberry mix-ins.
