What Is Baskin-Robbins Made with Snickers?

Made with Snickers is one of the brand-name mix-in flavors at Baskin-Robbins, right alongside favorites like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. It’s a vanilla ice cream base packed with chopped Snickers bars and swirled with caramel. It tends to rotate in and out as a seasonal flavor, so having a copycat recipe means you can enjoy it any time of year.

Ingredients Needed

Ingredients for Ninja Creami copycat Baskin Robbins Made with Snickers ice cream including sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, Snickers bars, and caramel sauce
  • Sweetened condensed milk: Adds creamy sweetness and keeps the ice cream smooth
  • Heavy cream: Creates a rich, velvety texture
  • Whole milk: Balances the creaminess and softens the base
  • Vanilla extract: Gives the base that classic vanilla flavor
  • Dash of salt: Balances the sweetness and brings out the caramel
  • Snickers bars: Chopped into bite-sized pieces for the mix-in
  • Caramel sauce: Store-bought or homemade, swirled in for that signature caramel ribbon

How to Make Ninja Creami Copycat Baskin Robbins Made with Snickers Ice Cream

Whisking sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, salt, heavy cream, and whole milk in a bowl to make the vanilla base for Ninja Creami Snickers ice cream

Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a dash of salt until smooth with no lumps. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream and whole milk until fully combined.

Vanilla ice cream base poured into a Ninja Creami pint container with the lid on, ready to freeze for 24 hours

Step 2: Pour the base into a Ninja Creami pint container, seal with the lid, and freeze for at least 24 hours until completely solid.

Step 3: Remove the lid, place the frozen pint into the Ninja Creami, and run the “Ice Cream” function. If the ice cream looks crumbly, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk and run “Re-Spin.”

Chopped Snickers pieces and caramel sauce added to a well in the center of spun vanilla ice cream before running the Mix-In function

Step 4: Create a small well in the center of the ice cream. Add the chopped Snickers pieces and drizzle in the caramel sauce. Run the “Mix-In” function to fold everything through.

Step 5: Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture, or freeze for another 10 to 15 minutes for a firmer scoop.

Pro Tips

  • Chop the Snickers small. Pieces about the size of a chocolate chip distribute better and won’t jam the mix-in paddle
  • Chill the Snickers first. Cold candy stays in chunks instead of smearing into the base
  • Don’t overdo the caramel. A few tablespoons is plenty. Too much liquid can make the ice cream soft
  • Freeze on a level surface. A tilted pint can freeze unevenly and cause the blade to catch
  • Add a final drizzle. A little extra caramel on top right before serving makes it look just like the scoop shop

Variations

  • Extra peanut crunch – Fold in a handful of chopped roasted peanuts with the Snickers
  • Chocolate base – Swap the vanilla base for the one in my Chocolate Fudge copycat for a double-chocolate Snickers pint
  • Salted caramel – Sprinkle flaky sea salt over the caramel before mixing in
  • Fun size shortcut – Use fun size Snickers bars and just quarter them, no big chopping required

Storage

Store leftovers in the Ninja Creami pint with the lid on in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Before serving again, let the pint sit at room temperature for a few minutes, then run the “Re-Spin” function to bring back the creamy texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different candy bar? Yes. Chopped Milky Way, Twix, or Reese’s all work with the same vanilla base and method.

Does this recipe contain nuts? Yes. Snickers bars contain peanuts, so this is not safe for anyone with a peanut allergy.

Why is my ice cream crumbly after spinning? This happens when the pint is very cold. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk and run “Re-Spin” until it’s smooth and creamy.

Can I make this without a Ninja Creami? Yes. Soften a quart of store-bought vanilla ice cream, fold in the chopped Snickers and caramel, and refreeze for a couple of hours.
