Instructions
- Pour the chocolate Premier Protein shake into the Ninja Creami pint container. Add the xanthan gum and mix well.
- Place the container on a flat, level surface in the freezer and let it freeze for 24 hours or until solid.
- Remove the frozen pint from the freezer and run it under hot water for about 30 seconds to loosen it up. Remove the lid.
- Place the pint container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami and lock the lid in place.
- Secure the outer bowl into the machine and press the Lite Ice Cream button. Let the cycle run.
- If the ice cream comes out powdery, place it back in the machine and press the Re-spin button.
- While the ice cream is blending, chop up the Grenade bar.
- Make a small hole in the center of the ice cream and add the chopped chocolate bar, caramel sauce, and sea salt.
- Press the Mix-in button and let the Ninja Creami incorporate all that deliciousness.
- Scoop into bowls, drizzle with a little extra caramel if you’re feeling fancy, and dig in!
Notes
- Want ultra-creamy ice cream? Add ½ teaspoon xanthan gum before freezing to maintain texture.
- Chop mix-ins into small pieces so they distribute evenly and blend smoothly.
- Place the pint on a flat surface in your freezer to prevent freezing at an angle.
- If the ice cream is too hard, use the Re-spin function for a softer consistency.
- Let the frozen pint sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes or run under hot water before spinning to prevent icy chunks.
- If a dome forms on top while freezing, try freezing without the lid or scrape off any excess before spinning to protect your blades.
- If you're looking to reduce sugar content, consider using natural sweeteners like honey or agave syrup for a different flavor profile.
