Whip up a taste of childhood with this vibrant Blue Moon Ice Cream! It’s a mysterious, fruity flavor—part Froot Loops, part raspberry-lemon—made incredibly easy in your Ninja Creami. Get ready for the creamiest, dreamiest blue treat you’ve ever made right at home.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ cups whole milk
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 4 tbsp instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 tsp red raspberry extract
  • ½ tsp lemon extract
  • 15−20 drops blue food coloring

Instructions

  1. Mix the Base: In a small bowl, whisk the whole milk and instant pudding mix together for about a minute until it’s completely smooth and there are no clumps.
  2. Flavor and Color: Stir in the heavy creamraspberry extract, and lemon extract. Add the blue food coloring a few drops at a time, mixing until you reach that perfect, dreamy blue.
  3. Freeze: Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, being careful not to fill past the max fill line. Secure the lid and place it on a level surface in your freezer for a full 24 hours.
  4. First Spin: Once it’s frozen solid, place the pint into the outer bowl, attach the blade lid, and lock it into your Ninja Creami. Process it using the “Ice Cream” function.
  5. Perfect the Texture: Don’t worry if it looks powdery—that’s normal! Just put the pint back in and run the “Re-spin” cycle. If it’s still a bit crumbly, add 1 tablespoon of cold milk and “Re-spin” one last time for an ultra-creamy texture.

Notes

  • Tips & Tricks: For the absolute creamiest results, don’t rush the 24-hour freeze time! A rock-solid, flat base is the key to success. You can also make several bases at once and keep them in the freezer for ice cream on demand.
  • Serving Suggestions: This ice cream is best enjoyed fresh! Scoop it into a waffle cone and top with rainbow sprinkles, Fruity Pebbles, or mini marshmallows. It also makes a fantastic ice cream float with some lemon-lime soda.
  • Storage Instructions: If you have leftovers, smooth the top, cover with the lid, and return the pint to the freezer. To serve again, you will likely need to run the “Re-spin” cycle to bring back that just-made creamy texture.
