Strawberry Cheesecake Cottage Cheese Ice Cream (Ninja Creami)

This Strawberry Cheesecake Cottage Cheese Ice Cream is the perfect low calorie, high protein treat! I love me high volume treats like this! You can make so many different flavors of cottage cheese ice cream but this one is by far my favorite. it tastes IDENTICAL to cheesecake. I use the Honey Cinnamon Sweet Thins by Simple Mills as a healthy graham cracker substitute and low fat cottage cheese to keep the fat and calories low. When you take your first bite into this ice cream you are going to be in HEAVEN.

You would never guess that this is a low calorie, and no added sugar dessert! Be sure to try my Low Carb Angel Food Cake as well!

What You Will Need:

  • Blender or Ninja Creami - To get the true ice cream consistency, you will need a blender. I have a Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker, which is HIGHLY recommended. It gives the perfect combination of speed, pressure, and time to create creamy ice cream. Ninja’s innovative Creamerizer System finely shaves and churns ice particles, which differentiates it so much from a regular blender. You won't have those frozen icy pieces. It is an investment, but SO worth it.
  • Cottage Cheese - You will need 16 ounces of cottage cheese. I used 1% small curd to keep the fat and calories lower, but use what you prefer!
  • Strawberries - 3-4 large frozen strawberries, plus fresh to top (optional).
  • Maple Syrup - 1/4 cup organic maple syrup. Lakanto is a great sugar free option if you are wanting that. It's naturally sweetened with monk fruit. You can use any liquid sweetener you prefer though.
  • Graham Crackers - I used 12 Simple Mills Honey Cinnamon Sweet Thins, which are my favorite healthy graham crackers. They are the BEST.

How To Make It

  1. Add the cottage cheese, strawberries, and maple syrup in your Ninja CREAMi or blender. Freeze until almost solid.
  2. Use the lite ice cream feature on the Ninja CREAMi to mix the ingredients together. I do this twice to make sure it's blended well.
  3. Mix in the graham cracker pieces with the mix in feature on your Ninja CREAMi.
  4. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes more if it looks like it needs it.
  5. Immediately dig in and enjoy!

How To Store Leftovers

If you end up having any leftovers, you can store them in an air tight container in the freezer for up to 1 month. I like to let mine defrost a few hours before I want to enjoy it again in my fridge for that perfect creamy consistency.
