### Instructions for Making Ninja Creami M&M Ice Cream
Making M&M ice cream with the Ninja Creami is simple and requires minimal prep. Here’s how to do it:
#### **Step 1: Prepare the Ice Cream Base**
1. **Mix the Ingredients**: In a mixing bowl, combine the **heavy cream**, **whole milk**, **sugar**, **vanilla extract**, and a **pinch of salt**. Whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved, and the mixture is smooth.
2. **Freeze the Base**: Pour the ice cream base into a **freezer-safe container** that fits your Ninja Creami machine (typically, it will be a 2-3 quart container). Make sure the container is level and the base is evenly distributed. Cover and freeze the container for at least **24 hours**. This step is crucial to ensure the ice cream will have the right consistency when processed in the Ninja Creami.
#### **Step 2: Prepare the M&Ms and Add-ins**
1. While the base is freezing, **chop the M&M candies** into smaller pieces if you prefer smaller chunks of candy in your ice cream. This step is optional, but it helps the M&Ms distribute more evenly throughout the ice cream.
2. If you like additional texture, **crush some graham crackers** or cookies to mix in, adding a fun crunch to the creamy ice cream.
#### **Step 3: Process the Ice Cream in the Ninja Creami**
1. Once your ice cream base is fully frozen (after 24 hours), remove it from the freezer and place it into the **Ninja Creami machine**. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific machine.
2. **Select the “Ice Cream” function** on the Ninja Creami and allow it to process the frozen base. The machine will break down the frozen mixture into a smooth, creamy consistency.
#### **Step 4: Add the M&Ms**
1. Once the ice cream has been processed, open the lid and fold in the chopped **M&M candies** and any optional add-ins like **chocolate chips** or crushed cookies. You can either gently stir the M&Ms into the ice cream or use the “Mix-In” function on the Ninja Creami to ensure an even distribution.
2. If you want more M&M pieces, feel free to top your ice cream with extra M&Ms before serving.
#### **Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!**
1. Once your ice cream is mixed and ready, scoop it into bowls or cones. For an extra touch, drizzle with some **chocolate syrup** or top with a few whole M&Ms.
2. Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, sweet, and colorful treat you’ve just created!
### Tips for the Best Ninja Creami M&M Ice Cream
– **Don’t Rush the Freezing**: Make sure your ice cream base is frozen for at least 24 hours. The longer it freezes, the better the consistency once processed in the Ninja Creami.
– **Customize the Add-ins**: You can swap out M&Ms for other candy like **Reese’s Pieces**, **chocolate chunks**, or even **toffee bits**. The options are endless!
– **Texture Variations**: If you prefer a smoother ice cream, avoid chopping the M&Ms. However, if you like a bit more texture and crunch, chop them up before adding them.
– **Add Swirls**: For added flair, swirl in some **chocolate syrup**, **caramel**, or **peanut butter** before serving. It’ll give the ice cream an extra flavor boost!
