Cold Stone Chocolate Devotion Ninja Creami (Copycat)
Description
Deep, dark chocolate Ninja Creami ice cream loaded with fudgy brownie chunks and chocolate chips — a rich copycat of Cold Stone's Chocolate Devotion.
Ingredients
Chocolate base:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, Dutch-process preferred
- 1 tbsp instant chocolate pudding mix, dry
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, to melt into base
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp fine salt
Mix-ins:
- 1/2 cup fudgy brownies, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp hot fudge sauce, plus more for drizzling
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, whisk the whole milk, sugar, cocoa powder, pudding mix, and 1/4 cup chocolate chips until the sugar dissolves and the chips melt into a smooth, glossy mixture (about 3–5 minutes).
- Remove from heat. Whisk in the heavy cream, vanilla, and salt. Let cool to room temperature.
- Pour the cooled base into a Ninja Creami pint, just below the max-fill line. Seal and freeze flat for 24 hours.
- Lock the frozen pint into the outer bowl and run the Ice Cream program. If it looks crumbly, run Re-Spin (add 1 tbsp milk first if very stiff).
- Dig a 1.5-inch hole in the center. Add the brownie chunks, 1/4 cup chocolate chips, and hot fudge. Run the Mix-In program.
- Scoop, drizzle with extra hot fudge, and serve immediately.
Equipment
- Ninja Creami Ice Cream Machine

Notes
Let the base cool fully before freezing and freeze the full 24 hours for the best texture. Keep the fat and sugar high to avoid an icy result. Store leftovers with wrap pressed to the surface and re-spin before serving.
