Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cotton candy flavoring
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pink and blue food coloring a few drops
  • 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk optional for extra creaminess

Instructions
  

Mix the Base

  • Take a mixing bowl and add heavy cream, milk and sugar. Whisk everything well until the sugar fully dissolves. This creates a smooth and creamy base for your ice cream.

Add Flavor

  • Pour in the cotton candy flavoring and vanilla extract. Mix again gently. This step gives the ice cream its sweet carnival taste that everyone loves.

Add Color

  • Divide the mixture into two small bowls. Add pink color to one and blue to the other. Mix lightly. Do not overmix if you want a fun swirl effect.

Combine and Freeze

  • Pour both colored mixtures into one freezer-safe container. Swirl gently with a spoon. Cover and freeze flat for at least 12–24 hours until completely solid.

Process in Ninja Creami

  • Remove the frozen base and place it in the Ninja Creami machine. Select the “Ice Cream” function. Let the machine do its job until the texture becomes creamy.

Re-spin if Needed

  • If the texture looks crumbly, use the re-spin function. This step makes the ice cream extra smooth and soft like store-bought ice cream.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Scoop the ice cream into bowls. Serve immediately for the best texture. You can also add toppings like sprinkles for extra fun.

Notes

  • Always freeze the base completely before using the machine.
  • Use good quality flavoring for better taste.
  • Do not skip the re-spin step if texture is dry.
  • Add condensed milk for extra creamy texture.
  • Keep colors light for a soft pastel look.
  • Avoid adding too much food coloring.
