Tips for making Ninja Creami Brownie Cookie Surprise Ice Cream
While this recipe calls for store-bought cookies and Little Debbie brownies, you can really use any type of cookies and brownies that you would like. You can use homemade or store-bought and any flavor that you would like. Some cookeis and brownies have nuts, some don’t. Some have candy in them, some don’t. Just use whatever your favorite cookies and brownies are.
Skor candy bars are a crunchy, hard, buttery toffee later that is dipped in milk chocolate. It’s got a good crunch to it and the milk chocolate goes really well with the toffee flavor. The skor chips that were used for this recipe are only the toffee bits, there is no chocolate.
Usually, if your ice cream comes out dry or crumbly it’s due to one of the following reasons:
*Your freezer is too cold. Try to adjust your freezer to be a little warmer or let your ice cream sit on the counter for 5-10 minutes before processing it.
*Your recipe does not have enough fat in it. Try adding in a little bit of a higher fat dairy product to your recipe next time.
*Your recipe may not have enough sugar in it. The less sugar in the recipe, the icier and crumblier the ice cream will be. Regular sugar, honey, or corn syrup can be used to increase the sugar content if desired.
It depends. If you are keeping the ice cream in the Ninja pint container with the lid sealed tightly and are freezing it in a cold freezer (between 9 degrees F and -7 degrees F), your ice cream will keep for several weeks, even months. However, if you transfer your ice cream to another container or freeze it in a freezer that is not quite as cold (or that is accessed a lot/door opened and closed often), the lifetime of your ice cream will decrease greatly to just a few days and you will likely end up with freezer-burned ice cream.
If you have made ice cream and it just isn't quite as creami as you would like, you can very easily get it super creami by using the re-spin function on the Ninja Creami. Simply place the pint into the outer bowl and snap it into place. Choose the RE-SPIN function. Once the cycle completes, remove the pint and enjoy! Your gelato should be nice and creamy again. ***Use re-spin on already spun ice cream. If the ice cream has been spun and then frozen again, do not use re-spin, Instead, use the original process (ice cream, gelato, etc.)

Ingredient substitutions and tips for making Ninja Creami Brownie Cookie Surprise Ice Cream:
The full ingredient list is found at the bottom of the post in the recipe card.
Heavy Cream- If you don't have heavy cream, you can use a combination of milk and butter instead. To make 1 cup of heavy cream, combine ¼ of melted butter with ¾ cup of milk. Mix thoroughly.
Milk (Whole)- Whole milk was used for this recipe. You can use lower-fat content milk but the end result may be less rich and creamy due to the lower fat content.
Cream Cheese- The cream cheese can be omitted if desired. Otherwise, you can use mascarpone cheese or yogurt instead.
Sugar–Any sugar substitute can be used but may change the texture of the ice cream.
Vanilla Extract– Vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste can be used. If you don’t have either, you can use Maple syrup or almond extract. Almond extract is much stronger in flavor than vanilla, so you will need to use less.
Little Debbie Brownie- If preferred, you can use a homemade brownie or any other brand.
Chocolate Chip Cookie- Use your favorite cookie! You can use homemade or store-bought.
Caramel Chips– Caramel chips were used for this recipe. If you prefer you can use butterscotch chips or regular chocolate chips.
Skor Chips- If you are not able to find the Skor chips, Heath chips are a great substitute. They both offer a toffee flavor.
Caramel Syrup– If you don’t have caramel syrup, you can use butterscotch or chocolate if you prefer.

Recipes that use allulose:
Allulose is a low calorie sweetener that your body doesn't fully digest, so it provides only 0.4 calories per gram instead of 4. That's why the calorie total doesn't match what you'd expect from the carb count. Calories from allulose are calculated based on metabolized carbohydrates. Allulose contributes fewer calories than standard carbohydrates.
