💀 Under Wraps Protein Ice Cream

Jump to Recipe

If you don’t recognize the title of this ice cream, you’re either too young or had no childhood. SORRY NOT SORRY.

’Tis a nod to a Disney classic that I’m due for a rewatch of now that I’m thinking about it. And lowkey, now that I’m thinking about it some more, mummies really get the short end of the stick during Halloween.

Likeeee, I feel like no one is actually really scared of them. They try to be scary, but the moaning sounds simply aren’t effective enough. Also, I suppose they do seem fragile—imagine kicking a mummy in the shin… their leg would probably shatter into dust.

OR maybe I’m confused about the mummification process. Would a mummy shin actually be durable? Like still hard bone? And I would hurt myself trying to hurt it? Idk, but either way, people aren’t scared enough of them for me.

People aren’t scared of anything that’s supposed to be scary anymore, actually. Mummies, Frankenstein, vampires, chickens, turkey legs… all laughable at this point. Mere child’s play.

Now the scariest things are actual people—TSK TSK (meant to sound like tisk tisk, aka what a shame). Let’s bring back classic horror! Mummies, ghouls, and goblins!!

And let’s start by making this Under Wraps Protein Ice Cream LOL.

Honestly though, on the ice cream note, I meant to start this off by saying you really can make this ice cream any flavor you want. The main point is just the white chocolate drizzle for the visual mummy effect.

I made the ice cream white chocolate with a little bit of cocoa powder just so the mummy wraps can be seen more easily. And as is, it’s sweet and creamy with a slight frosty taste because of the cocoa powder!!

So saying all that to saaaayyyyyyyy… yes, it is delicious as is! Also perfect for those who like to keep things simple but feel free to make it completely your own—whatever tickles your Halloween fancy!

Now let’s get into the recipe!

Why You’ll Love This Under Wraps Protein Ice Cream

• Halloween flair with ease — You don’t need to be a decorator. Drizzle some melted white chocolate and drop candy eyes, and bam — mummy vibes.
• Balanced flavor — White chocolate and cocoa combine so the “bands” don’t disappear visually against the ice cream.
• Protein-packed indulgence — With a vanilla protein base, you’re not just eating dessert.
• Simple, minimal toppings — No heavy sauces or layers to fuss over.
• Fun for all ages — Kids, friends, or solo you — this is a mouthful of seasonal joy.

Ingredients

Here’s everything you’ll need to make your mummy protein pint:

Ice Cream Base

• 1 ½ cups (360 mL) 2% milk
• 1 scoop (31 g) vanilla protein powder
• 14 g sugar-free white chocolate pudding mix
• 2 to 3 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder (adjust for how dark you want it)
• 1 tsp stevia or sweetener of choice, to taste
• ⅛ tsp salt

“Wraps” / White Chocolate Shell

• 21 g white chocolate chips
• ½ tsp coconut oil

Decoration / Toppings

• 2 candy eyes (you can find these in Halloween sprinkle packs)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Blend the Base

Combine milk, protein powder, white chocolate pudding mix, cocoa powder, stevia, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth and lump-free. The cocoa powder ensures the white chocolate “wraps” will show up visually.

2. Freeze the Pint

Pour the blended mixture into a Ninja Creami pint. Place it on a flat, level surface in your freezer and freeze for 24 hours.

3. Spin It

After 24 hours, remove the pint, rinse it under hot water (all sides and bottom) for 1–2 minutes to loosen the sides, then insert into your Ninja Creami. Spin on Lite Ice Cream mode, and re-spin 1–2 times if needed to reach your desired creamy texture. Place the pint in the freezer to chill.

4. Prepare the White Chocolate “Wraps”

While the base rests, melt your white chocolate chips + coconut oil in a microwave-safe dish. Use 15-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and pourable.

5. Decorate Like a Mummy

Grab your pint and place the two candy eyes on top. Then use a fork or spoon to drizzle the melted white chocolate over the surface in zigzag / wrap-style lines, back and forth — layering until it looks like mummy wrappings. It doesn’t have to be perfect; messy is part of the charm.

6. Serve Immediately

Once decorated, dig in! The white chocolate will harden, giving you that crackable “bandage” texture before you spoon into the creamy base underneath.

Tips & Tricks for Maximum Mummy Realism

• Cocoa powder is your visual friend: The more cocoa you use (within reason), the stronger contrast between the base and white chocolate wraps.
• Thin the white chocolate: If your melted white chocolate seems too thick to drizzle, add a drop more coconut oil to loosen it.
• Eyes placement: Insert candy eyes just before drizzling. Overlapping the chocolate across them a little helps them stick.
• Drizzle technique: Use a fork or the corner of a zip-top bag — zigzag with varying width so the “wraps” look chaotic and natural.
• Serve fast: The wraps look their best fresh. If left too long in freezer, white chocolate may dull or crack randomly.
• Storage: If you can’t eat it right away avoid adding the mummy wraps— wait until you’re ready to enjoy it so that you may respin if needed.

Customization Ideas

• Stronger chocolate contrast: Go heavier on the cocoa powder (3 tsp) if you want a darker base so the wraps pop more.
• Flavor swap: Use white chocolate pudding mix + strawberry protein powder + red drizzle for a “Vampire Wraps” version.
• Crunch boost: Fold in crushed chocolate cookies or nuts beneath the wraps for texture.
• Alternate wraps: Use melted candy melts (white) or even yogurt melts if you want a lower-sugar option.
• Extra drips: After the white chocolate sets, drizzle a bit of melted semi-sweet chocolate for “mummy grime.”
• Eyes variation: Use chocolate chips, mini M&Ms, or even edible googly eyes for different expressions.

FAQs

Can I skip adding cocoa powder?

You can, but the “wraps” might blend in visually with the base if everything is too pale. A little cocoa gives you that contrast.

What if my white chocolate is too thick to drizzle?

Add just a tiny extra drop of coconut oil and reheat slightly — stir until pourable.

Can I melt wraps ahead of time?

It’s possible, but fresh melted chocolate gives the best drips. Pre-melted chocolate may set unevenly before you finish raining the wraps.

Is this recipe dairy-free friendly?

Yes — use your favorite non-dairy milk, dairy-free protein powder, and dairy-free white chocolate chips or melts.

How long can I keep this in the freezer?

For best quality, eat within 2 days. The decoration is most visually striking fresh.

Do I need to re-spin later?

If the texture gets icy, yes — just re-spin on Lite Ice Cream mode and add a splash of milk to refresh.

Final Thoughts

This Under Wraps Protein Ice Cream is exactly the kind of Halloween treat I live for: spooky, playful, and usable in your high-protein life. You get the fun of decorating a mummy, the delight of a crackly white chocolate shell, and the satisfaction of a creamy, chocolate-blue base underneath.

If you make this, tag me or let me know how your mummy turned out. It’s the kind of recipe you want to show off — because even in dessert, we deserve to be cute and spooky.
