Instructions

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. (Add mix-ins like chocolate chips or similar only at the end.)

Taste the cream and, if needed, add extra sweetener. Transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze for about 3–4 hours, or until the ice cream reaches your desired consistency.

If needed, let it thaw for 10–15 minutes before serving, then enjoy it just like regular ice cream.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Blender Power Technique 🌪️
Blend cottage cheese until completely smooth for 2-3 minutes to eliminate graininess and ensure a silky, creamy texture in your final ice cream.
Protein Boost Hack 💪
Choose a thick, full-fat cottage cheese for maximum creaminess and protein content, which helps prevent ice crystals and improves overall texture.
Freezing Pro Tip 🧊
Use a shallow, wide container for freezing to promote faster and more even freezing, and cover with plastic wrap directly touching the surface to prevent ice formation.
Flavor Amplification Strategy 🌈
Add your flavor mix-ins (like nut butter or chocolate) after initial blending but before final freezing to create more distinct flavor pockets and visual interest.
Softening Secret 🕰️
Remove the ice cream from the freezer 5-10 minutes before serving to achieve the perfect scoopable consistency without melting completely.
