Ingredients
Ice Cream
- 1 1/2 cups 2% Fairlife milk
- 1 serving (35 grams) cookies and cream whey protein powder or vanilla protein powder (we use Peachie Spoon, “HappiHomemade” saves at checkout)
- 1 serving (10 grams) flavorless collagen (we use Yonder collagen, “HappiHomemade” saves at checkout)
Mix Ins (optional)
- 3 Oreos (chocolate sandwich cookies), broken into pieces
Instructions
- Place all ice cream ingredients (NOT mix-ins) in a Ninja Creami pint container and mix with a stick blender until smooth. A handheld frother may be used if it has enough power.1 1/2 cups 2% Fairlife milk, 1 serving (35 grams) cookies and cream whey protein powder or vanilla protein powder, 1 serving (10 grams) flavorless collagen
- Freeze the pint on a level surface in the freezer, with the lid off, for 24 hours (see notes). Freezing with the lid on creates a hump at the top of the ice cream. However, sometimes this happens no matter what.
- Remove the pint from the freezer and let it thaw for 10 minutes at room temperature or run the sides of the container under warm water for 1-2 minutes. If the top of your ice cream is not flat, scrape down any bumps or uneven texture with a knife (see notes).
- Place the pint in the outer bowl of the Creami and lock the lid on top. Place the bowl assembly on the Creami motor base, twist the handle right to raise the platform, and lock it in place.
- Select the Lite Ice Cream function two times. You will need to unlock and lock the Creami bowl in between the two cycles.
- If adding mix-ins, use a spoon to create a small hole in the center, about 1½ inches wide. Place the crushed cookies in the center. Lock the lid into place and select the Mix-In function.3 Oreos (chocolate sandwich cookies), broken into pieces
- Enjoy immediately!

Notes
Ingredient Tips - Fat free Fairlife milk may be substituted for the 2%, with little difference in texture. Vanilla protein powder may be substituted for the cookies and cream flavor, but you must add at least 3 Oreos as mix-ins to achieve the intended flavor.
Prep Tips - Don’t overfill the pint container. The ice cream will expand in volume as it spins so don’t worry if it looks like the pint isn’t initially full. While 24 hours is the typical time frame for freezing your pint, once you're familiar with the process, you can experiment with shorter freezing times and adjust as needed. Depending on freezer temps, you may only need 12-18 hours. If a hump forms on the top of your ice cream while freezing, shave down the bump or unevenness with a knife before processing. Your machine can be ruined if the ice cream is not flat on top.
Mix-in Tips - Break the cookies into smaller pieces. The Creami will not crush them small enough in Mix-In mode.
