Ninja Creami Peppermint Bark Ice Cream
Ninja Creami peppermint bark ice cream is full of peppermint and chocolate flavors.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- ¾ cup milk
- 3 Tablespoons cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract
Toppings
- white chocolate
- milk or dark chocolate
- crushed peppermint pieces
Instructions
- Add cottage cheese, milk, cocoa powder, sugar, and peppermint extract to a blender. Blend to combine.
- Pour into the Ninja Creami container and freeze for at least 18 hours on a level surface.
- Remove from the freezer and process on the ice cream setting. Add a splash of milk and respin 1-2 times.
- Top with crushed/shaved chocolate and crushed peppermint pieces.
Notes
- Run a little warm or hot water along the outside of your Creami container before processing. This will allow the outer layer to thaw a bit.
- If you have leftovers, smooth out the top and return to the freezer. You will likely need to reprocess or leave on your counter for a bit to thaw before scooping out and enjoying again.
- Get creative! While this makes an excellent peppermint bark ice cream, you can top your ice cream however you want or just enjoy without toppings for a delicious chocolate peppermint ice cream.
- As with any recipe using cottage cheese, if you don't want it to have a tangy flavor, make sure your cottage cheese is fresh and choose a brand that doesn't make tangy cottage cheese.
