Add some jello instant pudding mix and you got yourself a yummy caramel ice cream. Don’t forget the extra caramel sauce to drizzle on top!

Ingredients Needed Caramel Ice Cream
½ cup of almond milk – I really like Ripple Milk
½ cup of brown sugar oat milk coffee creamer – Caramel sauce is made from brown sugar so this ingredient makes a whole lot of sense to me. Or else you could use a dairy free caramel creamer.
2 tablespoons of jello instant pudding mix – I used cheesecake flavored but you can also use vanilla
2 tablespoons of sugar free caramel sauce
Optional ingredients: vanilla protein powder (not needed)
How to Make a Ninja Creami Caramel Ice Cream
- Fill the Pint: Pour the 2 milks, dry pudding mix, and sugar free caramel sauce into a Ninja Creami Pint. Make sure it doesn’t exceed the max fill line. Use a whisk and stir to combine.
- Freeze: Place the lid on the pint and freeze for about 6-8 hours or until the mixture is solid.
- Blend in the Ninja Creami: Once frozen, remove the pint from the freezer and attach it to the Ninja Creami Machine. Select the “Ice Cream” setting and let the machine do its magic.
- Serve: Once blended, scoop the slushie into a glass and serve immediately. Enjoy your refreshing homemade slushie!
Tips for the perfect Caramel Ice Cream
- Experiment with Flavors: I like to experiment with different non-dairy coffee creamers a long with my regular typical ripple almond milk flavor
- Add protein powders: For an extra protein boost use your favorite protein powder again, this this optional. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don’t. It just depends on what I have in my pantry.
- Adjust Sweetness: Tweak the sugar level to suit your taste preferences. You can use any type of artificial sweeteners that you like!
This simple slushie recipe will cool you down on a hot day and allow you to enjoy your Ninja Creami to the fullest!
