1. Can I make Ninja Creami Cookie Monster Ice Cream without cream cheese?

Yes, you can skip the cream cheese, but it adds a creamy tang that enriches the flavor. If you prefer, you can substitute it with additional whipped cream or a dairy-free alternative.

2. How do I store the Ninja Creami Cookie Monster Ice Cream?

Keep your ice cream in the Ninja Creami pint container with the lid tightly sealed to maintain freshness. Store it in the freezer, and it should last a few weeks.

3. Can I add fruits or other candies to the mix-ins?

Absolutely! Feel free to add fruits like strawberries or fun candies for a twist on the classic recipe. Just make sure whatever you’re adding is cut into small pieces for even distribution.

4. What if I don’t have a Ninja Creami?

You can still make ice cream without a Ninja Creami. Just pour your blended mixture into an airtight container and freeze it. Every 30-60 minutes, stir with a fork to break up any ice crystals until it's fully frozen.

5. How can I adjust the sweetness of the Ninja Creami Cookie Monster Ice Cream?

If you prefer a sweeter ice cream, feel free to add a little more sweetened condensed milk during the blending step. Taste as you go to find the balance that’s just right for you!
