Double Protein Peanut Butter Cookie Ice Cream (VG+ GF)

Snacks

if you’re a peanut butter lover looking for the ultimate treat, this double protein peanut butter cookie ice cream is about to be your new favorite dessert!!

it’s creamy, rich, packed with plant-based protein, and loaded with chunks of my homemade protein cookie.

made in the ninja creami, this ice cream feels indulgent but is secretly a healthy option that satisfies your cravings and fuels your body.

the taste + texture

this ice cream is everything you want in a peanut butter dessert: rich, nutty, and perfectly sweet.

the creamy base is velvety smooth, while the crumbled protein cookie adds chewy bites of deliciousness in every scoop.

the texture is just like traditional ice cream but without any dairy or gluten—creamy, dreamy, and packed with flavor.

double the protein = double the fun

what sets this ice cream apart is the double protein boost.

the ice cream base itself is loaded with protein thanks to vanilla protein powder, peanut butter, and thick coconut yogurt.

then, you swirl in my protein cookie, which adds even more protein and an irresistible cookie vibe.

this makes it a great post-workout treat or a dessert you can feel good about enjoying any time.

why it’s a healthier option

this ice cream is sweetened naturally with maple syrup and gets its creaminess from nutrient-rich coconut yogurt and peanut butter.

it’s completely vegan, gluten-free, and free of refined sugar.

the added protein makes it more filling than traditional ice cream, so it’s a dessert that nourishes your body and keeps you satisfied.

how to make it

making this ice cream couldn’t be easier.

you blend up the protein-packed base, freeze it in your ninja creami pint, churn it, and mix in chunks of my homemade protein cookie for the ultimate treat!!

add-in options:

if you want to switch things up, try mixing in chopped peanuts, vegan chocolate chips, or even swirls of dairy-free caramel or peanut butter.
for a little crunch, crushed gluten-free pretzels or cacao nibs are great options.

substitutions:

if you don’t have vanilla protein powder, chocolate protein powder would be a delicious swap.
almond butter or sunflower seed butter can replace peanut butter for a different nutty flavor.
coconut sugar or agave syrup can work in place of maple syrup, though the flavor may vary slightly.

storage tips

store any leftovers in your ninja creami pint and freeze it.

when you’re ready to enjoy, just use the “re-spin” setting to bring it back to its creamy perfection.

if you freeze it in another container, let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping.

a protein-packed treat for any occasion

whether you’re looking for a healthier dessert or just want a treat that’s as satisfying as it is delicious, this double protein peanut butter cookie ice cream is the answer.

it’s creamy, packed with plant-based protein, and so customizable that you’ll never get bored. plus, the combination of ice cream and cookie is truly unbeatable.

so grab your ninja creami and get ready to make a dessert that’s as good for you as it tastes!
