Ingredients & Substitutions

These ingredients yield a creamy, scoopable Oreo ice cream. Here’s what you need and optional swaps:

Whole milk: Creates a smooth base. Substitute with 2% for a slightly lighter result.
Heavy whipping cream: Adds richness. Use half-and-half for a less indulgent version, though texture will be lighter.
Granulated sugar: Sweetens the mixture. You can reduce slightly to taste or use a fine granulated sweetener cup-for-cup.
Light corn syrup: Prevents ice crystals and keeps the texture silky. If unavailable, a tablespoon of glucose syrup or a touch of honey can help, but results may vary.
Vanilla extract: Enhances the flavor of the base.
Oreo cookies: The mix-in that provides crunch and chocolate flavor. Swap for other cookies if you prefer.

How to Make Oreo Ice Cream in the Ninja Creami

Follow these straightforward steps:

Combine milk, heavy whipping cream, granulated sugar, light corn syrup, and vanilla extract in a Ninja Creami pint container. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Freeze the sealed container for 12–24 hours. When ready, remove from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Process the frozen base in the Ninja Creami on the “Ice Cream” setting.
Make a small well in the center of the processed ice cream and add four Oreo cookies that are broken into pieces.
Run the “Mix-In” setting to incorporate the cookies evenly.
Optional: sprinkle an extra broken Oreo on top for garnish and added texture.

Pro Tips

Stir the ingredients thoroughly before freezing so the sugar and corn syrup are evenly distributed.
Allowing the pint to sit 10 minutes at room temperature before processing improves churn and texture.
Break Oreos into small, bite-sized pieces so they distribute well and you get cookie in every spoonful.

Serving Suggestions

Serve in chilled bowls to keep the ice cream from melting quickly.
Top with a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce for an extra touch.
Pair with a warm brownie, slice of pie, or fresh fruit for a balanced dessert plate.

Recipe Variations

Use different cookies such as chocolate chip, graham crackers, or mint cookies for varied flavors.
Add mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or crushed peppermint for texture and contrast.
Swap vanilla extract for peppermint or almond extract to create a different flavor profile.
