Ninja Creami Lemon Cookie Ice Cream

Step 1

Place 1 tbsp cream cheese in a medium bowl and microwave for 5-10 seconds. If the cream cheese was in the fridge, these 5-10 seconds in the microwave will help soften it up to mix well with the other ingredients.

Step 2

Combine cream cheese with 1 tsp lemon extract and 1/3 cup granulated sugar. Whisk until the ingredients are mixed together.

Step 3

Slowly whisk in 1 cup whole milk and 3/4 cup heavy cream.

Step 4

Whisk in a few drops of yellow food coloring until the mixture is the desired color.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, ensuring it does not go over the max fill line.

Step 6

Freeze the pint for 24 hours, making sure it is placed on a flat surface in the freezer.

Step 7

After 24 hours, remove the pint from the freezer, and plug in your Ninja Creami machine! Time for the magic.Remove the lid from the pint and grab the Ninja Creami outer bowl. Place the pint securely into the outer bowl and cover with the lid. Once the lid is on, place the outer bowl into the machine, twisting to the right until it locks into place. Press the "Ice Cream" button and (try to) wait patiently for the creamy treat coming your way.

Step 8

Once the process is finished, press and hold the button on the left side of the Creami to twist the bowl to the left and remove it from the machine. Twist the lid off of the outer bowl and remove the pint.

Step 9

Now it's time for mix-ins! Carve a hole in the ice cream and drop in crushed golden Oreos. Place the pint back into the Ninja Creami machine and select "Mix-In".

Step 10

Now your lemon cookie ice cream is ready to enjoy!
