Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Base:

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup half-and-half
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or granulated sugar)
  • 1 tsp glycerin (optional, for softer texture)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Cream Cheese Icing Swirl:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp glycerin (optional)
  • 1/31/2 cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener

Instructions

  1. Blend the Base: Combine all ice cream base ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth, ensuring the cinnamon is fully incorporated.
  2. Churn the Ice Cream: Pour the mixture into your Cuisinart ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (about 20–25 minutes). The ice cream should reach a soft-serve consistency.
  3. Prepare the Swirl: While the ice cream churns, beat softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add heavy cream, glycerin (if using), and sweetener, mixing until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness to taste.
  4. Layer and Swirl: In a freezer-safe container, layer half of the churned ice cream, add dollops of the cream cheese icing, and gently swirl with a butter knife. Repeat with another layer of ice cream and icing until all components are used.
  5. Freeze: Cover tightly and freeze for at least 4–6 hours or overnight until firm. Let sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before scooping for easy serving.

Notes

Serving Suggestions: Serve in bowls or waffle cones, garnished with crushed cinnamon rolls or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar for extra flair!

Tips & Tricks:

  • Use pasteurized egg yolks if concerned about safety in custard-based ice creams.
  • Glycerin helps keep the ice cream soft but can be omitted if unavailable.
  • For best results, ensure all ingredients are cold before blending and churning.

Storage & Reheating Instructions: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks. To prevent freezer burn, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface before sealing. If too firm, let sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before scooping.
