So… What Is Blue Moon Ice Cream Flavor?
Nobody really knows, and that’s the fun part. It’s like a flavor mystery you eat with a spoon.
Some taste bubblegum. Others swear it’s almond or marshmallow. Honestly, it might be all of them—or none of them.
My version tastes like childhood… with a glow-up.
🛒Ingredients
This is just an overview—jump down to the full recipe card for exact amounts and detailed instructions!
- Half and Half – This gives the base a smooth, creamy texture
- Cottage Cheese – Trust me, it blends smooth and adds rich creaminess
- Sugar – Just enough for balanced sweetness
- Blue & Green Food Coloring – That iconic Blue Moon look!
- Almond Extract – For that subtle, nutty note
- Marshmallow Cream – Adds sweetness and a fluffy vibe
- Vanilla Extract – Rounds everything out beautifully
Substitution or Addition
- No half and half? Use equal parts whole milk and heavy cream
- Wants something better than sugar? Try sweetened condensed milk
- No cottage cheese? Greek yogurt works but won’t be as creamy
Let’s Make It!
