Fueled by old posts about ice-cream like FF CC blends, I set to work in my own evil laboratory this evening.

Unfortunately, my final product seems more likely to induce vomiting than memories of Reese's PB Cups.

Where did I go wrong?

Blended:

1 cup FF Cottage Cheese
2 TBs Natural PB
1/2 cup Skim milk
1 scoop Choc. Nitrean.


Blended, tasted, gagged.

Help? :bang:

Lots of salt in the cottge cheese? That would wreck it.....salt and chocolate don't mix.

Not!

Moles (MOH-lay), chocolate covered prezels, peanuts. Salt and choclote are great together.

What would make ME gag is choclate, PB and CC together... good lord why would you do that? :doh: :confused: :eek: :whistle: :spank: :eat:

I love CC plain (but I never eat FF). And why eat it FF if you're adding PB? 1% cottage cheese is healthy in that regard. But If I did want to spice it up, I'd just mix it an ounce/small handfull of almonds or walnuts.

I dont know that sounds good to me...

I eat Cottage cheese, 1 scoop of chocoalte protein, P butter, and put in some sugar free chocolate pudding. I mix it all and put it in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes, so its not frozen...but a little icy. And its really good!

It doesnt taste at all like ice cream.

Maybe thats your problem...you got your expectations up for it to taste very similiar to ice cream???

Different strokes, different folks....plain and simple....for me salt and sweet would clash horribly.

Because it tastes amazing :drool: (you forgot a dash of cinnamon ;) )


I think the expectation that it tasted like icrecream was not met is the most likely answer.

Protein powder and cottage cheese is a dreadful combo as far as my palette is concerned.

I agree with Cutsman. My night time shake is also made in a Magic Bullet (best invention ever) and I use...

ATW Chocolate Micellar Casein 1 scoop
1 tbl natty PB
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup ff cottage cheese
7 ice cubes

I think if you are using too much ff cottage cheese. Start with 1/4 cup and then try 1/2 cup. Also I don't use a protein blend, I use straight Micellar Casein powder. This is the key because that is what makes it VERY thick and more the consistance of an ice cream shake. i have yet to find anyone try the shake above and not fall in love with it. I look forward to it every night. :drool:

Why do you even mix cottage cheese? :confused:

I mix it because I can 't stand the taste of cottage cheese. I have tried everything and absolutely HATE the taste of cottage cheese. Blending it with protein powders is the only way I can get it down.
