Biscoff Ice Cream
This Biscoff ice cream is the ultimate indulgence for cookie lovers, and this homemade version is pure heaven. Smooth, rich, and bursting with that signature caramelized Biscoff flavor, this ice cream is simple to make and requires just a few ingredients. If you don’t have an ice cream maker or Ninja Creami, no problem! You can whip up this creamy treat by hand.
What you’ll need
1 ¼ cup heavy cream: This gives your ice cream its smooth, rich texture.
¼ cup milk: Helps balance the creaminess while maintaining a soft consistency.
½ cup sweetened condensed milk: Adds sweetness and keeps the ice cream scoopable, even after freezing.
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract: Vanilla enhances the Biscoff flavor, adding warmth and depth.
¼ cup crushed Biscoff cookies: Optional, for a bit of crunch and extra cookie goodness.
How to make it (No Churn, Hand-Whisk Method)
Prepare the Ice Cream Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract).
Whip the Cream: Now, with the hand whisk, vigorously whisk the cream mixture for about 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens and soft peaks form. You want the texture to be light and airy, but not fully stiff like whipped cream. The goal is to create a fluffy texture that will mimic the churned effect of an ice cream maker.
Add Texture with the Crushed Biscoff Cookies: Fold in the crushed Biscoff cookies gently.
Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Leave the ice cream to freeze for at least another 6 hours, or until it is fully set.
Serve and Enjoy: Once the ice cream is firm, scoop and serve!

How to make Biscoff Ice Cream in a Ninja Creami:
If you have a Ninja Creami, making Biscoff ice cream is even easier! Here’s how to do it:
Prepare the Ice Cream Mixture: Follow steps from the traditional method, whisking together the heavy cream, milk, condensed milk, and vanilla.
Freeze in Ninja Creami Pint: Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container, Place the pint in the freezer and freeze for 24 hours.
Process in the Ninja Creami: Once the mixture is fully frozen, take the pint out of the freezer and insert it into the Ninja Creami machine. Select the “Ice Cream” mode and let the machine work its magic.
Add Mix-ins: Add crushed Biscoff cookies, select the “Mix-In” option after the ice cream is processed. This step ensures the mix-ins are evenly distributed throughout your creamy, dreamy ice cream. If you like bigger chunks, crush the cookies using a cup on a plate and mix in manually.
Enjoy! Scoop your perfectly creamy Biscoff ice cream straight from the pint and enjoy immediately! You can store any leftovers in the freezer for up to a week, though the texture may firm up a bit after the first day.

Pro Tips for Perfect Biscoff Ice Cream:
- Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. Over-whipping can turn the cream into butter, resulting in a grainy texture in your ice cream.
2. Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. This makes it easier to serve and enhances the flavor.
