This simple but delicious Ninja Creami chocolate ice cream is great when you are craving a sweet treat on a low carb diet. Not only is it low carb, but it's also high protein, low calorie and low fat!

Prep Time 5 minutes
Additional Time 1 day
Total Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 scoop of low carb protein powder (I used Designer Lite cookies and cream)
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (I used Divine cocoa)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar free chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 dropper of chocolate liquid stevia**

Instructions

  1. Whisk together all the ingredients and taste. Add enough sweetener if you are not use the drops to make the base very sweet.
  2. Pour into the plasic pint containers that came with the Ninja Creami machine and place lid on pint. Set in the freezer for 20-24 hours. Make sure you place it on a flat surface in the freeezer.
  3. The next day, place the pint container in the bowl assembly of the machine and run the Lite Ice Cream cycle. When done take a look and if it's powdery run it through the cycle on or two more times until creamy.
  4. If after 3 cycles it's still powdery, add a tablespoon or two of almond milk and run it through again. The whole process (minus the freezing) takes less than 8 minutes usually.
  5. If adding mix-ins you can do that now and run it through using the Mix-in cycle. Or you can just do it by hand.
  6. This should make 2 servings. If you only eat half of it, make sure the smooth the remaining ice cream evenly and place back in the freezer. Run it through the machine when every you want to eat it. Use the Lite cycle probably 2-3 times to mix it up again.

Notes

** You can use any kind of sweetener you want. I really like Sweetleaf's chocolate stevia drops for the flavor and it adds a lot of sweeteness. You want your ice cream base to be very sweet because as it freezes it loses a bit of the sweetness. So just add enough sweetenr of choice to the base to make it very sweet.
