⏱ Servings & Timing

  • Serves: 4
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Chill/Freeze Time: 3–4 hours
  • Total Time: About 4 hours

🛒 Ingredients

Vanilla Base

  • 1½ cups plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup cottage cheese (blended smooth)
  • 1 scoop vanilla whey protein isolate
  • 2 tbsp powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2–3 tbsp unsweetened almond milk (to blend smooth)

Chocolate Swirl

  • 1 scoop chocolate whey protein
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • 1–2 tbsp almond milk
  • Sweetener to taste

👩‍🍳 Step-By-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Blend the Base

In a blender or food processor combine:

  • Greek yogurt
  • Blended cottage cheese
  • Vanilla protein
  • Sweetener
  • Vanilla extract
  • Almond milk

Blend until smooth and creamy.

The cottage cheese makes it thick and increases protein without tasting like cheese.

2️⃣ Make the Chocolate Swirl

In a small bowl mix:

  • Chocolate protein powder
  • Cocoa powder
  • Greek yogurt
  • Almond milk

Stir until smooth and thick but pourable.

3️⃣ Assemble the Swirl

Pour half the vanilla mixture into a freezer-safe container.

Drizzle half the chocolate mixture over it.

Add remaining vanilla base.

Top with remaining chocolate swirl.

Use a knife to gently swirl through for marble effect.

Do not overmix — you want visible ribbons.

4️⃣ Freeze

Cover and freeze 3–4 hours.

For best texture:
Let sit at room temp 5–8 minutes before scooping.
