This Ninja Creami Biscoff ice cream became an instant hit in my house from the very first batch. Creamy and fragrant with hints of caramel and a satisfying crunch, it delivers the comfort of your favorite Biscoff cookies in a cold treat that feels decadent yet comes together with minimal real effort.
My Ninja Creami quickly became my guilty pleasure gadget after trying this. I remember making it on a warm Friday night with my best friends and we ate half before it even made it to bowls.
Ingredients
- Sugar free butterscotch pudding powder: Brings the signature creamy flavor and texture that mimics a custard base without heavy cream. Choose a trusted brand for the creamiest results
- Two percent milk: Strikes the balance of lightness and creaminess. Always use milk with a fresh date for optimal taste
- Sweetener of choice: Helps you tailor the final ice cream to your exact liking. Start with a light hand and add more after tasting
- Lotus Biscoff cookies: Add irresistible spiced crunch and that unmistakable caramelized edge. Go for fresh, crisp biscuits for the best texture
- Biscoff spread: The essential decadent drizzle on top. Use the smooth variety for maximum pourability
Instructions
- Prepare the Base:
- Whisk together your milk and pudding powder in a medium bowl until fully blended and smooth. I like to use an immersion blender for extra creaminess but a strong whisk works fine
- Adjust Sweetness:
- Taste the mixture then add your preferred granulated sweetener. Remember it will lose some sweetness as it freezes so slightly over sweetening at this stage is key
- Freeze the Base:
- Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container and snap on the lid. Place upright in the coldest part of your freezer for a full twenty four hours which ensures a perfect texture later
- Process in the Ninja Creami:
- Remove the lid and set the pint in the Ninja Creami machine. Choose the lite ice cream setting. Once the cycle finishes test the consistency by pressing a spoon into the surface. If it is still crumbly use the respin function. Sometimes a tablespoon or two of extra milk helps
- Add Mix Ins:
- Scoop out a little bit of the middle of your ice cream to create a well. Drop in three of the crumbled Biscoff cookies then use the mix in setting to fold them throughout
- Serve and Top:
- Spoon the creamy Biscoff ice cream into bowls. Warm the Biscoff spread for a few seconds until pourable. Drizzle generously over the top and sprinkle with the last cookie for perfect crunch
Biscoff cookies stole my heart the first time I tried them in Belgium. Now swirling them into ice cream feels like the best sort of grown up dessert magic. My husband and I still joke that the cookie crumbles are the treasures in this creamy treat and he tries to sneak in an extra biscuit every time.
Storage Tips
Keep your finished ice cream in the Ninja Creami container with lid tightly sealed. It keeps well for up to two weeks though it rarely lasts that long. If you want to serve it again just respin in the Ninja Creami for a freshly churned texture.
Ingredient Substitutions
Oat milk or almond milk can stand in for dairy. If you cannot find sugar free butterscotch pudding powder try vanilla as a base and add a little brown sugar and a pinch of cinnamon for warmth. Any spiced cookie makes a fun substitute if Biscoff is unavailable.
Serving Suggestions
Pile scoops into crisp waffle cones for a nostalgic treat. Top with banana slices and crushed pecans for something special. Sometimes I even sandwich it between two Biscoff cookies for a homemade ice cream sandwich.
Cultural and Seasonal Context
Biscoff biscuits originated in Belgium and pair naturally with coffee. This ice cream is lovely in early spring but it absolutely shines in summer when you want a cool comfort. It is also a great ending for cozy autumn meals because of the subtle cinnamon spice.
Seasonal Adaptations
Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg in fall for extra warmth. Stir in chopped roasted nuts for winter crunch. Serve with fresh berries in spring or summer for a lighter finish.
Success Stories
Friends have told me this is the only reason their Ninja Creami stays out on the counter. After a dinner party my neighbor raved about the creamy texture and put her kids to work making the next batch.
Freezer Meal Conversion
The base can be prepared and portioned into several Ninja pints. Keep the mix ins and toppings separate until ready to serve so each bowl tastes freshly churned.
This Ninja Creami Biscoff ice cream brings out the child in everyone. A little prep and a handful of cookies turn into dessert magic you will want to repeat all summer long.
Common Recipe Questions
