OK, so I am not going to lie, ice cream is usually never my go-to dessert. I’m more of a cookie, brownie, or cake type of guy. However, after making my own chocolate mint protein ice cream, this might change!
CHOCOLATE MINT PROTEIN ICE CREAM
I won’t really run you guys through every single step of the process here since I did a video, but I will add a few notes and tips.
Easy as 1,2,3
Blend everything together in a food processor
One of the reasons I love recipes like this is that there are minimal bowls and steps required. Just add everything to the food processor, blend until creamy, and there you go.
Spread ice cream mixture into a dish
I spread the mixture into a 5×9 glass loaf dish. You could use pretty much any dish you’d like. The bigger the surface area / shallower the ice cream, the quicker it will freeze.
Chill until desired firmness and enjoy!
I let mine chill a little less than an hour because the ingredients (I.e. banana) were already frozen and it didn’t need long. Of course, it would also be delicious eaten as a pudding and not even frozen. You can’t go wrong either way.
Notes about the protein powder
I used a chocolate mint meal replacement protein in this one, but you can customize it and use any protein you’d like. It would be amazing using a Chocolate Peanut Butter or Cookies & Cream protein as well. And trust me, you do not taste the avocado at all. It makes the ice cream amazingly creamy without having to use have cream and egg yolks!
