Although it weighs in at fewer calories—and with less added sugar and fat—than your typical summertime dessert, this Peanut Butter Nice Cream with Blueberry Sauce still offers all the creamy satisfaction of good ol’ regular ice cream. It also packs a protein punch, thanks to the powdered peanut butter.
