Cottage cheese ice cream is taking over TikTok, and you need to try it!

High in protein, low in carbs, cottage cheese is perfect for most any diet.

People are now turning blended cottage cheese into a sweet frozen treat, simply perfect for that late night snack craving.

It’s important to note. They are calling it “Ice Cream,” and while it’s frozen and sweet, it is definitely NOT ice cream like you would buy at the grocery store.

But, if you are looking for something just a bit healthier, this is a great alternative.

It’s super simple to make. Cottage Cheese Ice Cream only uses a couple ingredients, and is totally customizable with your favorite flavors.

The Basic Cottage Cheese Ice Cream Recipe

So, all cottage cheese ice cream starts with relatively the same 2 ingredients, and then you build from there.

2 Cups of Cottage Cheese
2 Tablespoons of Sugar-Free Sweetener — I love these syrups from Amazon, or some pure maple syrup

Super simple, right?!?

What To Add To Cottage Cheese Ice Cream

The possibilities are pretty much endless here.

Pretend you are Ben & Jerry’s and throw anything that sounds good into the cottage cheese mixture.

Some ideas are:

Strawberries, Bananas, Blueberries, Peaches, Raspberries or any of your Favorite Fruits
Graham Crackers
Oreo Cookies
Chocolate chips
Splash of Vanilla Extract

Peanut Butter — or I like to use PB2 to give it a protein punch
Shredded Coconut
Cocoa Powder
Super-Free Pudding Mix

How To Make Cottage Cheese Ice Cream

Put the 2 cups of cottage cheese and sweetener into a blender — or you can use an immersion blender — and blend the crap out of it.

You want it to be totally smooth — kinda like the consistency of milk.

Then you are going to pour the blended cottage cheese into a freezable container.

Add your favorite flavored mix-ins, and mix with a spoon.

Put it in the freezer for 4-5 hours, enough time for it to get nice and frozen.

Take it out of the freezer, scoop it out of the container, and enjoy!!

It’s a tasty, protein packed treat!
