This Ninja Creami vanilla ice cream recipe is easy to make and doesn’t require any eggs! It’s Just milk, sugar, and cream cheese. You can make it in the Ninja Creami and it takes no time to make at all.
Kohl’s had one last Ninja Creami in the store yesterday so I grabbed it. My last Ninja Creami ended up burning inside somewhere and I coudn’t use the blade on it anymore. I think my problem was putting whole frozen fruit in it. This time I’m going to make sure everything is properly blended first adding it. I can’t wait to make ice cream again. I love my Air Fryer, Blackstone, and Ninja Creami!
I made vanilla ice cream and added in some chopped up chocolate bars during the respin part!

Why You Will Like the Ninja Creami
- Ninja Creami’s can make smoothie bowls,ice cream,gelato,sorbet,and even milkshakes!
- If the blending didn’t work the first time try adding some more juice or milk to it and do a second respin.
- For sorbets use canned fruit or fresh fruit. It just doesn’t make any sense to defrost frozen fruit and then refreeze it in the Ninja Creami machine.
- Find a good base ice cream for vanilla and you can add whatever toppings you like to the ice cream for mix ins.
- The Ninja Creami is kind of loud when it is spinning in the machine. Just warning you before you attempt to make ice cream. 🙂
- Protein drinks like Fairlife and Premiere work great in a Ninja Creami.
- This is the Ninja Creami machine I have. Ninja CN301CO CREAMi Ice Cream Maker (Amazon Link)
