EST. / SERVING~395 cal | ~42g protein
KEY TO SUCCESS: Keep the base otherwise unchanged except for the 1 tbsp Dutch cocoa.

Ingredients

CREAMI BASE

  • 1 batch usual protein Creami base (240 cal / 40g protein)
  • 1 tbsp Dutch-process cocoa powder (blend into base before freezing)

MIX-IN (after the first spin)

  • 2 Entenmann's Little Bites Fudge Brownies (half the four-piece pouch)

TOPPINGS

  • 1 tbsp Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme
  • 1 tbsp Hershey's Zero Sugar Chocolate Syrup (drizzle; working estimate)

Allergens: dairy, eggs, wheat, gluten, soy. Little Bites Fudge Brownies contain milk, eggs, wheat, and soy; Jet Puffed Marshmallow Creme contains egg. Verify the current physical labels before publishing final allergen tags.

You want a chocolate-cupcake whole-pint Creami — Dutch-cocoa base, fudgy brownie pieces, marshmallow creme, and a chocolate drizzle — at nearly half the calories of the Crumbl cookie and enough protein to work as a Powerup. Week 10 Flavor 2 of the CrumblCreamiCut series recreating current Crumbl flavors.

Method

  1. 1.BLEND BASE. Blend 1 tablespoon Dutch cocoa into your usual protein Creami base until completely smooth with no cocoa clumps.
  2. 2.FREEZE. Pour into a Creami pint without exceeding the max-fill line. Freeze upright and level overnight.
  3. 3.FIRST SPIN. Rest the pint 5 minutes, then process on Regular Ice Cream. If it stays powdery, run one no-liquid Respin before the mix-in.
  4. 4.MIX-IN THE BROWNIES. Cut a center well, press in two Little Bites fudge brownies, and run Mix-In.
  5. 5.SCOOP + MARSHMALLOW. Scoop the Creami into a bowl and top with 1 tablespoon Jet-Puffed marshmallow creme.
  6. 6.DRIZZLE + SERVE. Finish with a 1 tablespoon drizzle of Hershey's Zero Sugar Chocolate Syrup. Eat immediately for the intended texture.

Keys to success

  • The brownies are two Entenmann's Little Bites Fudge Brownies — half the visible four-piece pouch — and go in on Mix-In, after the first spin.
  • Freeze the pint upright and level overnight; process on Regular Ice Cream, not Lite.

If something fails

Base is too light in color: Confirm a full tablespoon of Dutch cocoa. Under-cocoa'd base reads pale rather than chocolate-cupcake brown.

Powdery after Regular Ice Cream: Run one no-liquid Respin before pressing in the brownies.

Brownie pieces disappeared into the pint: Cut a narrow center well and add the brownies right before Mix-In so they stay in recognizable pieces.

Texture is gummy: The guar gum in the base was likely heaped. Use a level measure.

Storage and reheating

Store: Keep the unprocessed base frozen upright and level. Add the toppings and process only when ready to eat.

Reheat: N/A. If the processed base is powdery, use a no-liquid Respin before the mix-in.

Lasts: The frozen pre-spin pint keeps up to one week. The finished pint is best immediately after Mix-In and drizzle.

Estimated nutrition

~395 cal | ~42g protein.

About 395 calories and 42g protein for the complete finished pint. Rounded creator estimate. Component breakdown: usual base (240 cal / 40g) + 1 tbsp Dutch cocoa (~10 cal / 1g) + 2 Entenmann's Little Bites Fudge Brownies, half the visible 230-calorie four-piece pouch (~115 cal / 1g) + 1 tbsp Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme (~22.5 cal, from 45 cal per 2 tbsp) + 1 tbsp Hershey's Zero Sugar Chocolate Syrup (~5 cal) ≈ 392.5 cal / 42g protein, displayed as about 395 cal / 42g. The syrup was described as a drizzle; this uses a one-tablespoon working estimate. Recalculate if the physical labels or syrup amount differ.
