Ingredients

Frosty Ingredients

  • 1 banana (frozen)
  • 3/4 cup Fairlife 2% Chocolate Milk
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (4%)
  • 1/4 cup Cool Whip
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (Clean Simple Eats Brownie Batter recommended)
  • 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder (essential if not using chocolate milk)
  • 8 ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients except the ice cubes, ensuring the banana is frozen for optimal texture and creaminess.
  2. Blend Base Ingredients: Add the frozen banana, chocolate milk, cottage cheese, Cool Whip, chocolate protein powder, and cocoa powder into a blender. Blend on high for 40-60 seconds or until the cottage cheese is completely smooth. If any chunks remain, continue blending to achieve a creamy consistency.
  3. Add Ice and Blend: Add the 8 ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the mixture is thick and frosty, creating the signature texture of a Wendy’s Frosty.
  4. Serve: Pour the Frosty into glasses immediately. Optionally garnish with PBfit, crumbled G2G bar, chocolate chips, whipped cream, or your favorite toppings to enhance flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Use frozen bananas for the best creamy texture and cold temperature.
  • If you don’t have chocolate milk, increase the cocoa powder to enhance the chocolate flavor.
  • Blending the cottage cheese thoroughly is key to avoid lumps.
  • Serve immediately for the best frosty texture; it is not meant to be stored long.
  • Optional toppings like PBfit or chocolate chips add extra flavor and texture variety.
