Where To Get the Ninja Creami

I got mine off of Amazon (during Prime Day) and it was the best purchase ever.

I literally tell everyone to buy one off Prime Day from Amazon!

Not only are the deals great, but I got it within 2 days of ordering it.

They also now have a soft-serve version called the Ninja Swirl… which I’ve been eyeing for next Prime Day!

Why Should You Get a Ninja Creami

Let’s continue to talk about my favorite kitchen product, the Ninja Creami.

I love ice cream so much.

As much as I love indulging in a big bowl of ice cream, I wanted a way to enjoy my favorite treat without feeling so guilty when my bowl was empty.

That’s when I started seeing the Ninja Creami all over social media and knew I had to give it a try.

Just try one of my Ninja Creami recipes and let me know what you think!

Reasons to Love This Cookie Dough Ice Cream Recipe

MIX-INS

Mix-ins are the best part of the Ninja Creami, especially when it’s cookie dough!

HEALTHIER DESSERT OPTION

Making a Ninja Creami is a great option to replace ice cream because it tastes just like regular ice cream; however, it’s way higher in protein and has way better ingredients.

ALLERGY-FRIENDLY

This ice cream is nut-free, gluten-free, egg-free, and can be made dairy-free depending on the milk of choice. *Make sure to check your cookie dough ingredients to ensure they are allergy-free if needed.

What Kind of Protein Powder to Use?

The only protein powder I use in my Ninja Creami recipes Clean Simple Eats.

I use this kind in particular because it contains 20g of protein, includes a digestive enzyme blend, and is made with natural ingredients that actually taste good.

Ingredients for Ninja Creami Cookie Dough Ice Cream

MILK

Fairlife milk is the milk I like to use in my Ninja Creami recipes because it has 13g of protein per serving. For this particular recipe, I used 2% Fairlife milk.

PROTEIN POWDER

For this recipe, you’ll need vanilla protein powder, and my favorite is from Clean Simple Eats.

Each serving contains 20g of protein, and it’s made with natural ingredients and includes a digestive enzyme blend for easy digestion.

SUGAR-FREE PUDDING MIX

A pudding mix enhances the sweetness. I use 1-2 tablespoons in each Ninja Creami recipe.

For this recipe, I used a sugar-free vanilla pudding mix.

MIX-INS

For the mix-ins, I used Sweet Loren’s Ready to Bake Less Sugar Chocolate Chunk. You can eat this cookie dough raw (and it tastes fabulous). I knew it would be the perfect cookie dough to use.

Sweet Loren’s also has other cookie dough flavors like Fudgey Brownie, Chocolate Chunk, Sugar, and more!

How to Make Cookie Dough Ice Cream in the Ninja Creami

Take your Ninja Creami pint container and fill it with all the ingredients except the cookie dough.

Next, take your frother and froth until all are combined. If you do not have a frother, you can use a blender.

Freeze the mix for 8-24 hours.

Take the container out and put it into the Ninja Creami and then blend on “Lite Ice Cream.”

If it has a nice creamy texture, skip the next step. However, if the ice cream looks crumbly, hit re-spin.

When it’s done, add in some chopped-up cookie dough. Then hit “mix-ins”.

Enjoy your Ninja Creami Cookie Dough Ice Cream!

Tips for Making the Best Ninja Creami Protein Ice Cream

Protein Powder: Clean Simple Eats is the protein powder I would recommend using. So incredibly flavorful and filled with clean ingredients, and contains tons of protein. I have a 10% off code for you here.

Blend: You want to make sure you blend all ingredients completely so you have a smooth and creamy base. You can either use a frother or a blender. Frother is less clean up though!

Freeze: Make sure you have the Ninja Creami mix entirely frozen for no shorter than 8 hours or up to 24 hours if you have the patience. This will give it the best consistency!

Run Pint Under Warm Water: Right before you mix it in the Ninja Creami, run the pint jar under warm water so the sides and bottom of the pint aren’t icy. I do this for about 2-3 minutes. Another option is to set it out for 5-10 minutes before mixing.
