Coffee Ice Cream
Yet another recipe for the Ninja CREAMi machine.
Ingredients:
• 12 oz 1% milk
• 2 scoops vanilla Metabolic Drive
• 1-3 teaspoons of instant coffee (to taste, decaf)
• 1 tablespoon half-and-half or coffee creamer
Directions:
-
Whisk everything together except the half-and-half or creamer. The instant coffee won’t fully dissolve in cold milk, but that’s okay. The machine will take care of it. Freeze overnight.
-
Spin on the lite setting.
-
Make a little hole in the top of the ice cream (which will look a little powdery). Add your half-and-half or whatever coffee creamer you like. Also a good time to add cinnamon if that’s your thing. Re-spin and enjoy.
Notes:
• I went with decaf since I eat my ice cream at night, but you do you.
• Espresso powder works too.
• I added shaved 100% baking chocolate to the top for a bittersweet punch.
• Play around with the amount of instant coffee to get the flavor you like.
• You’ll get about 57 grams of protein from this one (whole pint).
