Indulge in the creamy, nostalgic goodness of homemade cookies and cream ice cream! This easy-to-make dessert combines a rich vanilla base with chunks of Oreo cookies, all made effortlessly using the Ninja Creami. Perfect for a sweet treat any day of the week!

Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Base:

  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • ½ cup half-and-half
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)

Mix-Ins:

  • 4 Oreo cookies (smashed or crumbled)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: In a mixing bowl, whisk together milk, half-and-half, sugar, pudding mix, and vanilla bean paste until smooth and well combined.
  2. Freeze: Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container, ensuring it doesn’t exceed the MAX FILL line. Cover with the lid and freeze on a flat surface for at least 24 hours.
  3. Process in Ninja Creami: Remove the frozen pint from the freezer and place it in the Ninja Creami outer bowl. Lock it into the machine and select the “Ice Cream” function.
  4. Add Mix-Ins: Dig a small well in the center of the processed ice cream and add crushed Oreos. Use the “Mix-In” function to incorporate them evenly. Repeat this step once more for better distribution.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately for a fresh, creamy texture!

Notes

Serving Suggestions:

  • Top with extra crushed Oreos or drizzle with chocolate syrup for added indulgence.
  • Pair with warm brownies or cookies for a decadent dessert combo.

Tips & Tricks:

  • If your ice cream is crumbly after processing, add a tablespoon of milk to the center and use the “Re-spin” function for a smoother texture.
  • For more Oreo flavor, mix finely crushed cookies directly into the base before freezing.

Storage & Reheating:

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week. Place plastic wrap directly on top of the ice cream to prevent freezer burn.
  • Let frozen ice cream sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping to soften.
