@seattlehanddoc COOKIES & CREAM PROTEIN ICE CREAM + VIRAL CHOCOLATE SHELL ICE CREAM * 1 cup milk * ½ cup Greek yogurt * 1 scoop vanilla protein powder * 1 Tbsp vanilla pudding mix * 2–3 chocolate sandwich cookies, filling removed & cookie shells crushed * 1–2 Tbsp milk, for re-spinning * Extra chopped chocolate sandwich cookies, for mixing in Blend milk, Greek yogurt, protein powder, pudding mix and crushed cookie shells until smooth. Pour into your Ninja CREAMi pint and freeze flat overnight, or until completely solid. Run the outside of the pint briefly under warm water, then process on LITE ICE CREAM. Make a small well, add 1 Tbsp milk and RE-SPIN until creamy, adding another splash only if needed. Add chopped cookie pieces and run the MIX-IN cycle. VIRAL HARD-SHELL CHOCOLATE CONES * Melted chocolate * Cookies & cream ice cream * Extra cookie crumbles Pour melted chocolate into a disposable piping bag. Using your fingers, push the chocolate from the tip toward the top so the inside is coated, then open the bag so the two chocolate-coated sides aren’t touching. Spoon in about ½ pint of ice cream, layering in extra cookie crumbles. Twist and tie the top closed. The frozen ice cream starts hardening the chocolate almost immediately! Freeze for about 10 minutes, peel away the piping bag and you have the CRUNCHIEST chocolate hard-shell ice cream cone. #NinjaPartner @ninjakitchen #NinjaCreami #cookiesandcream #viraldessert

Transcript

You know we love a good late night snack so when we saw the viral chocolate shell ice cream we had to try it with our Ninja CREAMEE. Just add milk, yogurt, protein powder, cookie crumble, and pudding mix into your vessel and freeze it tier just run it under warm water and you're gonna pop it into the creamy and blend it. Next, add a splash of milk to help smooth it out and blend it one more time and then look how rich and creamy it gets. We're making homemade cookies and cream ice cream today. It doesn't get better than that. Grab your favorite cookie, chop it up, throw all those cookie crumbles in, and you're gonna remix it one last time. Seriously, how good does this look? Pour melted chocolate into a piping bag and spread it all the way to the top, then spoon in that freshly blended ice cream into the bag. The chocolate sets almost instantly against the frozen ice cream. Add in some extra cookie crumble for crunch, tie it up, and pop it into the freezer for ten minutes. Then whenever the late night craving hits, open it up, crack through that chocolate shell, and dig in. Seriously, look at that. These were so good.
