Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cotton candy flavoring
  • 2 –3 drops pink or blue food coloring
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base Mixture

  • Take a mixing bowl and add milk, cream, and sugar. Whisk until sugar dissolves completely. This creates a smooth base for your ice cream and helps give it a creamy texture later.

Add Flavoring

  • Pour in cotton candy flavoring and vanilla extract. Mix gently so the flavor spreads evenly. This step gives the ice cream its sweet and fun cotton candy taste.

Add Color

  • Add a few drops of food coloring. Stir slowly to create a soft pastel color. You can swirl pink and blue for a beautiful and playful look.

Freeze the Mixture

  • Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Cover it tightly and freeze for 12–24 hours. Make sure it is completely solid before using the machine.

Process in Ninja Creami

  • Take the frozen base and place it in the Ninja Creami machine. Select the “Ice Cream” setting. The machine will turn the frozen block into creamy ice cream.

Re-spin if Needed

  • If the ice cream looks dry or crumbly, use the re-spin function. This makes the texture smoother and creamier, just like store-bought ice cream.

Add Mix-ins

  • If you like, add sprinkles or small candies. Use the mix-in function to blend them evenly into the ice cream.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Scoop into bowls and serve immediately. Enjoy the soft, creamy texture and sweet cotton candy flavor with family and friends.

Notes

  • Use low-fat milk for lighter version
  • Add rainbow sprinkles for fun texture
  • Try blue and pink swirl for visual appeal
  • Use natural food coloring if preferred
  • Adjust sugar level to your taste
  • Freeze fully before processing
