Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ to ¾ cup M&M’s plus extra for topping

Instructions
 

  • Mix the Base
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, and salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  • Freeze the Base
  • Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami pint container (don’t exceed the max fill line).
  • Cover with the lid and freeze for 24 hours until solid.
  • Spin in Ninja Creami
  • Remove frozen pint from freezer and place it into the Ninja Creami machine.
  • Use the “Ice Cream” function. If it looks crumbly, press “Re-Spin.”
  • Add the M&M’s
  • Create a small well in the center and pour in ½–¾ cup M&M’s.
  • Use the “Mix-In” function to evenly distribute.
  • Serve & Enjoy!
  • Scoop into bowls or cones, top with extra M&M’s, and dig in!
  • Store leftovers in the freezer in an airtight container with plastic wrap on the surface.

Notes

  • For extra crunch: Freeze M&M’s before mixing in.
  • Dairy-free option: Use coconut cream + almond milk.
  • Switch it up: Try peanut M&M’s, caramel swirls, or crushed Oreos.
  • Too firm? Let sit for 5–10 minutes or use the Re-Spin function.
