Ninja Creami Ben and Jerry’s Vanilla Caramel Fudge Recipe Tips

  • Use full-fat milk and cream for a rich, creamy texture

  • Process the ice cream slowly on the Ice Cream setting for smoothness
  • Fold in caramel and fudge gently to keep swirls intact
  • Serve immediately or store in the freezer for a firmer texture
  • Clean the bowl thoroughly between uses to prevent flavor carryover
