Notes
Here are some important notes for making Ninja Creami Brownie Cookie Surprise Ice Cream:
- Ensure Thorough Cooling: Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting to prevent them from becoming mushy in the ice cream.
- Chill Cookie Dough: Chilling the cookie dough helps it firm up and prevents it from melting too quickly in the ice cream base.
- Mix Gently: When folding the brownie pieces and cookie dough into the ice cream base, do so gently to avoid breaking up the chunks too much.
- Pre-Freeze Container: Make sure the Ninja Creami pint container is completely frozen before adding the mixture for best results.
- Allow Adequate Freezing Time: For optimal texture, freeze the ice cream mixture for at least 24 hours before processing in the Ninja Creami.
- Processing Time: Follow the Ninja Creami manufacturer’s instructions for processing to achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Storage: Store any leftover ice cream in a freezer-safe container to maintain its texture and flavor.
