- 1 tablespoon nut butter
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
- 2 –3 ice cubes for thicker texture
Instructions
- Add protein powder, frozen fruit, milk, and yogurt or cottage cheese to a blender or food processor

- Add ice cubes or extra frozen fruit if the mixture is too thin
- Add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if the mixture is too thick
- Blend again briefly until smooth and spoonable
- Transfer to a mug or bowl and serve immediately
Notes
Use frozen fruit for the best ice-cream-like texture
Start with less liquid and add gradually to avoid melting
A high-powered blender gives the creamiest result
Best enjoyed immediately; freezing changes texture
Flavor depends heavily on the quality of protein powder used
