Notes

  • If you're looking to lower the overall calories/fat and up the protein, feel free to use PB2 powder instead! Just be sure to mix it with water so that it creates the same amount as peanut butter.
  • To make this recipe in a blender:
    1. Whisk the protein ice cream base together.
    2. Pour into an ice cube tray and freeze.
    3. When ready, blend in a high-speed blender. You may have to work with it and add a little bit of extra milk to get it smooth and creamy!
    4. Fold in the mix-in ingredients, add toppings and enjoy!
