Protein Fluff

I have a huge sweet tooth and love to eat a lot at night, so this quick recipe has been a life saver!

INGREDIENTS:

-1 scoop protein powder (I used Cinnamon Cookie Batter Level-1)

-1 tbsp (10g) sugar-free jello pudding mix (I used butterscotch)

-20 ice cubes

-1/2 tsp xanthum gum

-1/2 tsp butter extract

-2 tsp alternative sweetener (I used Swerve)

-1/2 cup unsweetened almond or cashew milk

Optional: toppings such as crushed oreos, mini marshmallows, etc.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Add ice cubes to food processor or blender and pulse on the highest power for about 3 seconds 10 to 15 times till all the ice is crushed and snow-like.

2. Add in the protein powder, pudding mix, almond milk, sweetener, and butter extract.

3. Blend on the lowest speed for 5-8 minutes.

4. Stop the processor or blender. Using a small spatula or spoon, scrape the remaining ice and ingredients from the sides into the rest of the fluff.

5. Add in the xanthum gum. Pulse again for 2-3 seconds for about 10 times or until mixture is smooth and everything is mixed in.

6. Add toppings of choice and enjoy!
