A creamy, indulgent homemade ice cream loaded with the nostalgic crunch of Butterfinger candy. Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth or impressing guests with a fun, candy-inspired dessert!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1¾ cups half and half
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ cup PB2 powdered peanut butter
  • ½ cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 8 bite-sized Butterfinger candies, coarsely chopped

Instructions

  1. Blend the Base: In a blender, combine half and half, sweetened condensed milk, PB2, cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Freeze the Mixture: Pour the blended mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, leaving about half an inch of space at the top. Freeze flat for at least 24 hours.
  3. Process in Ninja Creami: Once frozen solid, process the base using the “Lite Ice Cream” or “Ice Cream” function on your Ninja Creami machine until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add Butterfinger Mix-ins: Create a small well in the center of the ice cream and add the chopped Butterfinger pieces. Use the “Mix-In” function to evenly incorporate them into the ice cream.
  5. Serve & Enjoy: Scoop into bowls or cones, garnish with extra Butterfinger pieces if desired, and enjoy immediately!

Notes

Serving Suggestions:

Top with whipped cream, caramel drizzle, or extra crushed Butterfingers for added decadence. Serve alongside warm brownies or cookies for a delightful pairing.

Tips & Tricks:

  • Ensure all ingredients are chilled before blending for a smoother texture.
  • Freeze the pint container on a flat surface to ensure even freezing.
  • If the ice cream is too firm after freezing, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes or use the “Re-spin” function on your Ninja Creami.

Storage & Reheating:

Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week. To restore its creamy texture after freezing, use the “Re-spin” function before serving.
