📝 Preparation Steps
1
Blend the Base: In the Ninja Creami pint, combine the protein shake, sugar-free pudding mix, and cream cheese. Use an immersion blender or regular blender to mix until completely smooth.

2
Freeze: Secure the lid on the pint and place it on a level surface in the freezer. Freeze for at least ⏱️ 24 hours until completely solid.
3
First Cycle: Place the frozen pint into the outer bowl, attach the blade lid, and lock it into the Ninja Creami machine. Select and run the 'Lite Ice Cream' cycle. The mixture will likely look dry or crumbly after this step.
4
Re-Spin for Creaminess: Add 1 tablespoon of milk or a bit of your protein shake to the pint. Install it back into the machine and run the 'Re-Spin' cycle. You may need to run the re-spin cycle more than once to achieve a smooth, creamy texture.

5
Add Mix-Ins (Optional): If adding mix-ins, create a hole down the center of the ice cream. Add your desired ingredients, and then run the 'Mix-In' cycle to distribute them evenly.
6
Serve and Enjoy: You can serve the ice cream immediately for a soft-serve texture, or return it to the freezer for ⏱️ 30-60 minutes for a firmer, more scoopable consistency.
