Ingredients
  

Ninja Creami base
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 0.75 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cream cheese, softened Soften to blend smoothly.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.25 tsp salt
Cookies and mix-ins
  • 8 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed Crush into small pieces for even mix-ins.

Equipment

  • 1 Ninja Creami
  • 1 Freezer

Method
 

Blend the base
  1. Blend the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, and salt until completely smooth and the cream cheese is fully incorporated. Scrape down the container as needed so there are no visible cream cheese lumps.
Freeze
  1. Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container, leaving 1 inch of headspace. Freeze for 24 hours until solid.
Spin into ice cream
  1. Process on the Ice Cream setting. If the pint is too firm, add 1 tablespoon milk and re-spin.
Fold in cookies and serve
  1. Use the Mix-In function to fold in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies. You should see cookie pieces distributed throughout without over-processing.
  2. Serve immediately or return the pint to the freezer. For best texture, eat soon after mixing.

Notes

Pro tip: leave the headspace in the pint to help the lid and mix function run cleanly, and fully freeze for the smoothest top during the first spin. Store covered in the freezer up to 1 week; for best scoopability, let it sit at room temperature for 3–5 minutes before serving. Freezing after mix-in is yes, though texture may soften slightly. For a lighter option, swap heavy cream for half-and-half (results will be softer and less dense).
