Ingredients

  • 1 cup Fairlife skim milk
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tbsp vanilla jello pudding mix
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • tsp peppermint extract
  • 1 candy cane crushed

Instructions

  • Add fairlife skim milk, almond milk, protein powder, pudding mix, salt, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract to the ninja creami pint container up to the max fill line and mix well with hand held frother.
  • Freeze container for 24 hours until frozen solid.
  • Remove frozen pint, run under hot water for 60 seconds and install into your machine. It’s important that your pint has a level surface, otherwise it can damage the blade. 
  • For the first spin, press lite Ice Cream button. Remove the outer bowl lid. If ice cream is still powdery, then add back to machine and press respin button.
  • Check ice cream. The final product should be creamy and have a smooth texture. If your desired consistency isn’t reached you can add a bit of liquid and spin again on the respin setting. 
  • Make a small hole in the center of the ice cream and add your candy cane pieces (can also add chocolate chips if desired). Mix again using the “mix-in” button. Enjoy!
