Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup water (or more for desired consistency)
- 2 tablespoons erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 ice cubes (optional, for extra thickness)
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, almond milk, water, sweetener, and vanilla extract into a high-speed blender.
- Blend these ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides if necessary.
- Add the frozen strawberries and ice cubes (if using) to the blender.
- Blend again until the mixture is completely smooth and thick. Start on low speed and gradually increase to high.
- Taste the smoothie and add more sweetener if you prefer it sweeter. Add a splash more water or almond milk if the mixture is too thick to blend easily.
- Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a thicker, more dessert-like texture, use only 1/4 cup of almond milk and omit the water.
- You can substitute frozen raspberries for half of the strawberries for a different berry flavor.
- Add one scoop of unflavored or vanilla keto protein powder for a meal replacement option.
- If you do not have erythritol, use liquid stevia drops until you reach your desired sweetness level.
