JA@jar.of.lemons This Healthy Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream went viral for a great reason! I am OBSESSED with this one. It’s so creamy and made with cottage cheese and has that mint chip goodness we all know and love. With 16g of protein per serving, this is hands down one of my favorite healthy desserts! If you love mint chocolate chip as much as I do, this healthier version is about to become your new obsession. 💚🍫

Here is what you need:
▢ 3 cups cottage cheese (higher fat = creamier texture)
▢ 1/3 cup maple syrup
▢ 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
▢ 1/2 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
▢ 1/2 teaspoon spirulina (optional, for color)
▢ 1 cup chocolate chips (or more!)
▢ Fresh mint (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:
Blend the cottage cheese, maple syrup, vanilla, peppermint, and spirulina (if using) until completely smooth.
Pour into an airtight container and freeze for 1 hour.
Stir in the chocolate chips, cover, and freeze for another 3–5 hours.
Remove from the freezer and let thaw for 15–20 minutes.
Break it up with a spoon, mix well, then scoop and enjoy!
This is one of those desserts you’ll want to keep on repeat.

TIP: The best way to get that creamy texture is to use a Ninja Creami (linked in my LTK/bio)! Otherwise it’s best to make sure to let it thaw a bit and break it up with a spoon, then use an ice cream scoop.
