Whisk the sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon zest into the warm cream cheese until it reaches a thick icing texture. Stir in lemon juice until well combined. Slowly whisk in Atkins Strong Vanilla Protein Shake and heavy cream until evenly combined. Pour into the CREAMi pint, cover and freeze for 24 hours.
  2. Remove frozen pint, process using Ninja CREAMi on the lite ice cream setting, then follow up with a respin for the best texture. Place ½ of the chopped Atkins Lemon Crème Protein Wafer Crisp bar into the center, and process for Mix In.

Cooking Tip

We tested a variety of recipes using the Ninja CREAMi machine and found including cream cheese really helps create an ice cream texture, while Atkins shakes provide a wonderful rich flavor. Using this ice cream base, you can switch out the lemon juice if desired, just be sure to adjust the net carbs with any swaps for accurate tracking.
