Ingredients

1 1/2 cups thick Greek-style yoghurt or blended cottage cheese
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
2-3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional but gives “birthday cake” flavour)
2 tablespoons sprinkles (plus extra for topping)
1-2 tablespoons milk, only if needed for blending

Instructions

In a food processor or blender, add the yoghurt (or cottage cheese), vanilla protein powder, honey, vanilla extract and almond extract. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
If the mixture is too thick to blend, add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until smooth. Taste test and add more honey or vanilla if you think it needs it.
Pour the mixture into a bowl and gently fold in the sprinkles so they don’t dissolve.
Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top and add extra sprinkles. Freeze for 2–3 hours, stirring once halfway through for a softer, creamier texture.
Let the ice cream sit on the bench for 5 minutes to soften, then scoop and enjoy!
