Equipment
- 1 Ninja Creami Deluxe 11 in 1 Ice Cream Maker
- 1 Ninja Creami 24 ounce container pint
- 1 Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup half and half
- ¼ cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 ounces full-fat cream cheese
- 3 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
- ½ cup chopped candied maple walnuts
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Blend half and half, condensed milk, cream cheese, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
- Pour into a Ninja Creami Deluxe pint and freeze 24 hours.
- Spin using Ice Cream setting.
- If crumbly, add 1 tablespoon half-and-half and Respin.
- Add candied walnuts using Mix-In cycle.
- Enjoy immediately or freeze 10–15 minutes for a firmer texture.
Notes
- Half-and-half prevents the “butter problem” heavy cream can cause.
- Always blend cream cheese fully for a silky base.
- Add nuts after spinning to keep them crisp.
- Works great with toasted walnuts if you don’t have candied ones.
- Freezes well up to 2 weeks — Respin to revive texture.
