I held off on the cottage cheese ice cream trend for ages thinking it sounded weird, then I made this Cottage Cheese Vanilla Protein Ice Cream in the Ninja Creami and felt dumb for waiting. Blended smooth with milk, honey, vanilla, and pudding mix, you cannot taste the cottage cheese at all, just creamy vanilla. My skeptical wife guessed regular ice cream. Blend the base completely smooth before freezing or you'll get little curds in the final spin. Freeze flat for 24 hours, spin, and add a splash of milk and re-spin if it comes out crumbly.
