Chocolate & Vanilla Protein Ice Cream
HEY! Guess what? Protein ice cream is happening TODAY! There’s not much summer left so we’ll make this one quick.
Start with a blender that can crush ice. If yours can’t crush ice, I’ll put a link below to one that can (my blender)!
Vanilla Protein Ice Cream
For vanilla ice cream you’re gonna add in 1 1/2 cups to 2 cups of ice, 1 1/2 scoops of a vanilla protein powder, 1-2 ounces of a milk or milk substitute, 3 tablespoons of liquid egg whites, and a little optional ground cinnamon.
Blend those until smooth.
Top your homemade vanilla ice cream with whatever you want and enjoy! I like topping mine with some graham cracker crumbs and sugar free caramel.
Chocolate Protein Ice Cream
Don’t like vanilla ice cream? Don’t worry! Let’s make a quick chocolate version for you chocolate fans.
Add into your blender 1 1/2 cups to 2 cups of ice, 1 1/2 scoops of a chocolate protein powder, 1-2 ounces of a milk or milk substitute, 3 tablespoons of liquid egg whites, and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder.
Blend those until smooth.
Top your homemade chocolate ice cream with whatever you want and enjoy! I like topping mine with some fat free whipped cream and sugar free chocolate syrup.
If your blender sounds like it’s not doing anything, either stir your ingredients around a bit and continue blending OR add in a little bit more liquid. It should take around :30 seconds total.
There you go! Quick protein ice cream with just a couple ingredients.
Yes, it’s actually good as long as you blend it enough and use a good tasting protein powder.
The best part? The macros!
Let me me know in the comments below what your choice is. Vanilla? Chocolate? Swirl? Neither!?

I made this it was a runny. The taste was amazing. I used vanilla cake protein powder with French vanilla slim fast. I would definitely be making this all the time.
I really like the taste of this but I keep getting a watery or Wendy’s “Frosty” texture. Am I supposed to freeze this after? Or suggestions to fixing this watery issue?
You could freeze it for a bit or use a little xanthan gum!
I’ve wanted to make this one for a while — finally got to it this morning. SO so good!! Perfect texture. I was really doubting it — but it’s amazing. Gonna try chocolate for lunch 🙂
THANK YOU!
