How To Make Ninja Creami Mint Oreo Ice Cream

Prepare the Ice Cream Base: In a mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese until smooth. Add the granulated sugar and mint extract, stirring until well combined.

Incorporate Dairy: Slowly pour in the whole milk and whipping cream, mixing until you achieve a smooth consistency. Add 2-3 drops of green food coloring and stir until the color is evenly distributed.

Freeze the Base: Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, making sure not to exceed the “MAX FILL” line. Secure the lid and place the container in the freezer for at least 24 hours, or until completely frozen.

Process the Ice Cream: Once frozen, remove the lid and place the container in the Ninja Creami machine. Select the “Ice Cream” function and process until smooth.

Add the Mix-ins: After processing, make a small hole in the center of the ice cream and add the crushed mint Oreos and mini chocolate chips. Place the pint back into the machine and select the “Mix-In” function to distribute the Oreos throughout the ice cream.

Ninja Creami Mint Oreo Blizzard Recipe Tips

• Use Softened Cream Cheese: Ensure the cream cheese is softened before mixing to prevent lumps and achieve a smooth texture.
• Chill the Mixture: After mixing the ingredients, freeze the base for at least 24 hours before processing in your Ninja Creami for the best results.
• Customize Your Oreos: Feel free to use more or fewer Oreos depending on how much crunch you want in your blizzard.
• Adjust Mint Flavor: If you prefer a stronger mint flavor, increase the mint extract by 1/4 teaspoon, but be careful not to overpower the taste.
• Add Chocolate Chips at the End: To maintain their crunch, add the mini chocolate chips after blending the base in the Ninja Creami, during the last mix.
• Use Whole Milk and Heavy Cream: For the creamiest consistency, stick with whole milk and heavy cream for a rich, indulgent dessert.

Storing

Store your Ninja Creami Mint Oreo Blizzard in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Be sure to allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before serving for the best texture.

FAQs for Mint Oreo Ninja Creami Ice Cream (Dairy Queen Blizzard Copycat)

How long should I freeze the ice cream base? You should freeze the base for at least 24 hours to ensure it’s fully solid before processing.

Can I use peppermint extract instead of mint extract? Yes, you can use peppermint extract, but the flavor will be stronger and more similar to a peppermint candy. Adjust to taste if needed.

Do I have to add food coloring? No, the food coloring is optional and only for appearance. It doesn’t affect the flavor, so you can skip it if you prefer.

Can I use regular Oreos instead of Mint Oreos? Yes, regular Oreos will work, but the flavor won’t have the same minty twist. You can mix both mint and regular Oreos for variety.

What if my ice cream is too hard or icy? If the texture is crumbly or appears dry and hard, you can either re-spin as is with the “Re-Spin” function or you can add 1 TBS of either milk or heavy cream and then re-spin

Can I add extra Oreos? Definitely! Feel free to add more Oreos based on your preference. Just be mindful of the overall texture and balance of ingredients.

What’s the best way to serve this ice cream? Serve it as is for a delicious treat, or top it with whipped cream, crushed Oreos, or chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.

How does this compare to a Dairy Queen Blizzard? This recipe has a soft serve texture that makes this a close copycat recipe. It captures the creamy, thick texture and delicious mint-chocolate combination similar to a Blizzard, making it a great homemade alternative!
