Directions

Makes: 16oz · Servings: 4

Whisk condensed milk, cream, and vanilla until smooth.

Pro Tip

Whisk until completely smooth with no lumps — this ensures an even freeze and creamy texture.

Pour into Ninja Creami pint container.

Pro Tip

Fill to the max fill line but not above — overfilling can cause the lid to pop off during processing.

Freeze for 24 hours.

Pro Tip

Place on a flat, level surface in the coldest part of your freezer. Uneven freezing leads to inconsistent texture.

Process using the Ice Cream function.

Pro Tip

If the machine struggles or the pint spins freely, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before retrying.

Common Questions

How long does Condensed Milk Ice Cream last in the freezer?

Once processed in the Ninja Creami, Condensed Milk Ice Cream is best enjoyed immediately for the creamiest texture. You can refreeze it for up to 2 weeks — just let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before re-processing with the Re-Spin function.

Which Ninja Creami models can make Condensed Milk Ice Cream?

This recipe works with all Ninja CREAMi models — the 7-in-1 (NC301), Deluxe, XL Deluxe 11-in-1 (NC501), and Scoop & Swirl (NC701). It also works with discontinued models like the Breeze (NC100) and original 5-in-1 (NC300). The ingredients are sized for a standard 16oz pint. If you have a 24oz Deluxe or XL Deluxe model, use our built-in ingredient scaler to adjust the quantities up.

Is Condensed Milk Ice Cream easy to make?

Yes! This is a beginner-friendly recipe with just 3 ingredients and 4 simple steps. It's a great recipe if you're new to the Ninja Creami.

Is Condensed Milk Ice Cream suitable for special diets?

Yes, this recipe is: Gluten-Free. Always check individual ingredient labels to confirm they meet your specific dietary requirements.

What if my ice cream comes out crumbly?

This is normal after the first spin. Select the Re-Spin function for a smoother, creamier result. If it's still crumbly after two re-spins, let the pint sit at room temperature for 3-5 minutes, then try again.

How much extract should I use? Can I add more for stronger flavor?

Extracts are highly concentrated — a little goes a long way. Start with the amount listed and taste the base before freezing. You can always add more, but you can't remove it. Peppermint extract is especially potent — even 1/4 teaspoon extra can make it overpowering.

What's the difference between heavy cream, heavy whipping cream, and whipping cream?

Heavy cream and heavy whipping cream are the same thing: 36% milk fat (MF). Use either interchangeably. Whipping cream (30-35% MF) works well too, slightly lighter. Half-and-half (10-12% MF) — do NOT use as a substitute. International equivalents: UK "double cream" (48% MF — use 3/4 the amount), Australia "thickened cream" (35% MF), France "crème entière" (30-40% MF).

Can I use evaporated milk instead of sweetened condensed milk?

No — they are very different. Sweetened condensed milk is thick, sweet, and acts as both sweetener and stabilizer. Evaporated milk is unsweetened and thin. Using evaporated milk instead would result in a much less sweet, icier texture. Stick with sweetened condensed milk for this recipe.
