Frozen PB2 Chocolate Peanut Butter Cool Whip Treat
Difficulty: Super Easy
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Freeze Time: 2–3 hours
Servings: 4
Ingredients
1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip Lite (thawed if frozen)
2 tablespoons PB2 powdered peanut butter with cocoa
(Adjust to taste — use up to 3 Tbsp for richer flavor)
Optional (for texture):
1–2 tablespoons cold milk or almond milk (if you want it smoother)
Crushed peanuts or dark chocolate chips (for topping)
Instructions
Mix It Up
In a medium bowl, combine Cool Whip and PB2 cocoa powder. Stir until completely smooth and uniform in color. No dry spots should remain.
Taste and Adjust
Taste-test the mix. Add more PB2 for stronger chocolate-peanut flavor, or a splash of milk for a silkier texture.
Freeze
Transfer the mixture back into the Cool Whip container (or into individual ramekins or a loaf pan). Smooth the top.
Set
Place in the freezer uncovered for 2–3 hours, or until firm. For a firmer texture like ice cream, freeze longer.
Serve
Scoop and enjoy straight from the freezer! Optional: Top with crushed peanuts or sugar-free chocolate chips for crunch.
Serving Size
Makes 4 modest servings (about ½ cup each)
Optional Variations
Swirl in sugar-free caramel or chocolate syrup before freezing.
Use regular PB2 (no cocoa) for a pure peanut butter flavor.
Add protein by mixing in a scoop of chocolate or vanilla protein powder.
For a keto version, use a keto-friendly whipped topping and unsweetened cocoa + peanut butter.

PB2 powdered peanut butter with cocoa is a popular low-fat, low-calorie ingredient that provides a rich peanut chocolate flavor without the added calories and fats of traditional peanut butter. Containing about 25 calories per serving and being sugar-free, it helps create healthier dessert options that fit well with diets focused on weight management or reducing sugar intake. This frozen treat combines the airy creaminess of Cool Whip Lite with the distinctive taste of PB2 peanut cocoa powder, making it a delightful, protein-enriched dessert option. The recipe's flexibility allows for adding a splash of cold milk or almond milk to achieve a smoother texture, and toppings like crushed peanuts or dark chocolate chips add pleasant crunch and enhance flavor complexity. For those interested in nutritional boosts, incorporating a scoop of chocolate or vanilla protein powder can increase the protein content, making it particularly attractive for post-workout recovery snacks. Moreover, the recipe can be adapted to keto-friendly diets by using suitable whipped toppings and unsweetened cocoa with traditional peanut butter. Storing this treat in the freezer ensures it remains firm and refreshing, akin to ice cream, with approximate nutritional values per serving of 80-100 calories, 2-3g fat, 6-8g carbs, less than 2g sugars, and 3-4g protein. This makes it not only tasty and satisfying but also aligned with goals around satiety and controlled calorie consumption. Key tips for success include avoiding overmixing to maintain the whipped texture and letting the treat sit briefly after freezing to soften slightly for easier scooping. Overall, this frozen PB2 chocolate peanut butter Cool Whip treat is an excellent way to satisfy late-night cravings or indulge in a post-workout snack without guilt, combining convenience, flavor, and healthy ingredients effectively.
