About this Hazelnut Caramel Cookie Dough Ice Cream Cake:

Hazelnut cookie dough and caramel ice cream! Just a combination coming straight up from dessert heaven... in a healthy way because we are using ingredients that are better for you without sacrificing taste at all, quite the opposite!


I decided to use caramel ice cream along hazelnut to create a magical combination and cookie dough since I wanted to create a cookie dough ice cream cake recipe... so here's the result and it's such a game changer! This ice cream cake is EPIC!


Key Ingredients:

Adding some protein powder for extra creaminess and a satisfying filling. I have been also obsessed with the Nuzest Smooth Vanilla Plant Based Protein, their ingredients are always the best and the taste is always delicious too, this smooth vanilla is basically a healthy, dreamy and indulgent vanilla milkshake (keto and gluten free!), but in this case cookie dough.



Hazelnut, the magic and nutritional factor! Also a healthy alternative, the ice cream we are using is low carb and gluten free, along with the pea protein, coconut flour with the fiber and tahini this is a just a satisfying snack or dessert idea.


The base is soft and the filling of these is creamy thanks the the keto friendly ice cream, I used Killer Creamery. Other delicious low carb ice creams I love is Real Good Foods and Enlightened.


The base of this Hazelnut Caramel Cookie Dough Ice Cream Cake:

The base is made with simple ingredients and Nuzest Smooth Vanilla pea protein and coconut flour to keep it nutrient dense and gluten free. Since we are not using any eggs we are tahini as our tasty ingredient that will keep the dough of this cake together.
