Fact: I’m a sucker for anything “monster cookie.” Between the cookie crumbles, the M&M’s, and the fun colors, it’s just one of those treat themes that are exciting to reach for (even as an adult!).
If you have a Ninja Creami ice cream machine (who doesn’t at this point?), you have to try this recipe! It’s not only fun to look at, but it’s packed with 35g of protein and contains a crunchy mix-in in every bite.
P.s. If you love Monster Cookie as much as I do, whip up a batch of our Monster Cookie Protein Bites to have on hand as a healthy, balanced snack. These are kiddo-approved, too!
