Hello Reader,

If you're just freezing a chocolate protein shake and hoping that it will turn into ice cream, you're right. It will. But, it's not going to taste very good. I have perfected my recipe to make the BEST chocolate protein ice cream! Its' super creamy and has a TON of chocolate flavor.

When I took the very first bite of this ice cream, I actually said...it has the taste and texture of gelato! GELATO!! How can that be? It's a protein shake...it can't be that good! But, it is! It's sooooo good. And, it's the PERFECT base recipe to add your favorite mix-ins to.

Here's a couple Tasty Tips for this recipe:

What mix-ins go well with Chocolate Protein Ice Cream?

You can use almost anything as a mix-in. Try adding cookies, candies, fresh fruit, cereal, brownies, or even nuts. I would try to stay away from adding in nut butter like peanut butter, sauces, and spreads. Adding these things in will not create ribbons of flavor. Instead, they will fully incorporate into the base of the ice cream. Sometimes, mixing these types of ingredients in will turn the ice cream to more of a soft serve consistency and you may not be able to scoop the ice cream because it has softened up too much.

How can I get rid of the hump in the ice cream?

Many have found that freezing the ice cream without the lid helps reduce the bump that sometimes gets created during the freezing process. While this may work sometimes, it does not always work.

Give it a try! You'll be so happy you did!

Happy Cooking,
