Description
A rich, creamy, high-protein dessert that combines the bold flavor of coffee with the smoothness of vanilla protein shake and a cookie crunch. Perfect as a guilt-free dessert or post-workout treat.
Ingredients
400 ml ready-made vanilla protein shake
2 tbsp vanilla instant pudding mix (such as Angel Delight)
2 tsp instant coffee granules
6–8 mini chocolate sandwich cookies (for mix-ins)
Instructions
- Pour the vanilla protein shake, instant pudding mix, and instant coffee granules into a freezer-safe tub.
- Whisk everything together until smooth and fully combined.
- Seal the tub with a lid and freeze for 24 hours.
- Once frozen, remove the lid and churn the mixture using the Lite Ice Cream setting on an ice cream machine (e.g., Ninja CREAMi).
- Create a 4 cm hole in the center of the churned ice cream and add the mini cookies.
- Use the Mix-In setting to blend the cookies into the ice cream.
- Scoop and serve immediately, optionally topping with extra cookies.
Notes
Swap vanilla protein shake for chocolate or caramel for flavor variations.
Use chocolate pudding mix for a mocha twist.
Stir in chopped nuts or peanut butter instead of cookies for mix-ins.
Use decaf instant coffee granules for a caffeine-free version.
Store leftovers in the freezer and reprocess before serving for best texture.
