Ingredients Needed

Ingredients needed for Ninja Creami Wendy’s Frosty (Copycat) on kitchen table.
  • Chocolate Milk: The star of this recipe, use whole chocolate milk, low-fat, or even Fairlife Milk.
  • Chocolate Pudding Mix: Regular pudding mix adds texture to the chocolate milk. Make sure you use instant pudding mix.

Variations

  • Softer Texture: For a creamier, milkshake-like consistency, simply add a bit more chocolate milk during the second spin.
  • Mix-Ins: I love adding chocolate sprinkles, but you can also incorporate cookie dough chunks, Oreo pieces, store-bought chocolate chip cookies, or mini chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture.

How To Make Ninja Creami Wendy’s Frosty

Pour the chocolate milk into the empty Ninja Creami Pint Container.

Step One: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the chocolate milk and the instant chocolate pudding mix until well combined. The mixture should start to thicken due to the pudding mix.

Step Two: Pour this mixture into the Ninja Creami pint and put the lid on. Place the pint in the freezer and let it freeze until it’s solid about 24 hours.

Step Three: Once the mixture is fully frozen, take the pint out of the freezer and follow your Ninja Creami instructions to turn the frozen base into a soft, creamy consistency similar to a Wendy’s Frosty. This typically involves using the “Lite Ice-Cream” function on the machine.

Serve and Enjoy: Once the machine has done its job, serve your homemade Frosty in cups with spoons. Enjoy immediately for the best texture and taste.

Ninja Creami Wendy’s Frosty Recipe Tips

  • Achieve Desired Thickness: For a softer, milkshake-like texture, add a bit more chocolate milk before the second spin.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Use instant chocolate pudding for a classic taste or experiment with other flavors for variety.
  • Chill Properly: Freeze your mixture for 24 hours for ideal creaminess.
  • Try Mix-Ins: Add mini chocolate chips, crushed Oreos, or sprinkles for extra flavor.
  • Perfect Serving Temperature: Serve immediately after blending for the best consistency.

Leftovers and Storage

  • Leftovers: If you have leftover Wendy’s Frosty from the Ninja Creami, store it in an airtight container in the freezer to maintain its texture. Just know it may become quite firm; for a smoother consistency, let it soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving.
  • Storage: For longer storage, freeze any remaining Frosty for up to a week. When ready to enjoy, use the Ninja Creami’s “re-spin” function or mix well after thawing slightly to bring back that creamy texture.

Wendy’s Frosty Ninja Creami Recipe Faqs

Can I use a different kind of milk instead of whole milk? Yes, you can use different types of milk like 2% or almond milk. However, whole milk will give you the creamiest result.

How long can I store the homemade Frosty in the freezer? Ideally, the homemade Frosty should be consumed immediately after it’s made for the best texture and taste.

Can I add mix-ins to my Frosty? Absolutely! You can customize your Frosty by adding in cookie chunks, brownie bits, or even swirls of peanut butter or caramel.

Can I make this recipe vegan? Yes, you can substitute the dairy products with plant-based alternatives. However, this will alter the taste and texture of the final product.
