Step 1: Blend the Ice Cream Base | Whisk together all ingredients together until smooth and fully combined. Alternative method is using an emersion blender. We do not recommend a blender, as this adds too much air to the mix.

Step 2: Freeze | Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami pint container and freeze for at least 16 hours.

Step 3: Prep the Pint | Run the outside of the frozen pint under hot water for at least 60 seconds before spinning.

Step 4: Spin on Lite Ice Cream | Place the pint into the Ninja Creami and run the “Lite Ice Cream” setting.

Step 5: Add Mix-Ins | If the ice cream looks powdery after the first spin, don’t panic — that’s actually perfect for this stage. Use a butter knife to create a hole down the center of the ice cream and add your favorite mix-ins.

Step 6: Run the Mix-In Cycle | Run the “Mix-In” cycle and enjoy.

Optional: Re-Spin | If you want an even creamier texture, you can re-spin the ice cream. We personally prefer the consistency after the mix-in cycle because it keeps that thick Frosty-style texture.
