🧺 Ingredients

For the Cake Batter Ice Cream Base:

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp dry vanilla cake mix (heat-treated*)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp instant vanilla pudding mix (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Mix-Ins (Add After First Spin):

  • Rainbow sprinkles 🌈
  • White chocolate chips
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Crushed sugar cookies

*To heat-treat cake mix: spread it on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes, then cool completely.

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Directions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the whole milk and sugar. Whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  2. Pour in the heavy cream and whisk gently until combined and smooth.
  3. Add the heat-treated cake mix, vanilla extract, pudding mix (if using), and a pinch of salt.
  4. Whisk thoroughly until no lumps remain and the mixture looks silky and uniform.
  5. Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami pint container, making sure not to exceed the max fill line.
  6. Secure the lid and place the container on a level surface in your freezer. Freeze for 12–24 hours, until completely solid.
  7. Remove the pint from the freezer and insert it into the Ninja Creami outer bowl.
  8. Process using the Ice Cream setting.
  9. If the texture looks crumbly after the first spin, add 1–2 tablespoons of milk and use the Re-Spin function.
  10. Once smooth and creamy, create a small well in the center and add your chosen mix-ins.
  11. Use the Mix-In function to evenly distribute them without breaking them down.
  12. Scoop immediately for soft-serve texture, or return to freezer for 10–15 minutes for firmer scoops.
  13. Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy right away. 🍦

📝 Notes

  • Heat-treating the cake mix is essential for safe consumption and best flavor.
  • The pudding mix is optional but adds a bakery-style richness and smoother mouthfeel.
  • Whole milk and heavy cream provide the creamiest result, but lower-fat milk can be used with slightly icier texture.
  • This ice cream is naturally very sweet and comforting — no extra flavorings needed.
  • Store leftovers in the freezer with the lid tightly sealed; re-spin before serving again.
