110 gram Low Fat Cottage Cheese
1 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste
0.25 tsp Xanthan Gum or Guar Gum can be omitted but it is very helpful for consistency
10 gram sugar alternative Sweeten to taste, you may want more than 10 gram

In a blender, food processor, or immersion blender: combine all ingredients except 20 grams/ml of the milk and blend until smooth.
Transfer the mix to the container.
Freeze for at least 24 hours.
When ready, use the light ice cream setting on the Ninja Creami machine.
After the cycle is done, take it out of the container and add the remaining 20 grams/ml of milk.

Helpful tip: Some people find it becomes creamier if you let the mix sit out at room temperature for 10 minutes before using the machine.
