Description

This easy Ninja Creami vanilla milkshake blends vanilla ice cream, milk, and a splash of vanilla extract into a thick, creamy, ice-cream-shop-style shake in just minutes.

Ingredients 

For the milkshake

  • 2¼ cups vanilla ice cream
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract, optional

For the sprinkle rim (optional)

  • ⅓ cup rainbow or chocolate sprinkles
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips

For garnish (optional)

  • ½ cup whipped cream
  • 2 teaspoons rainbow or chocolate sprinkles
  • 2 maraschino cherries

Instructions

  • Add the vanilla ice cream, milk, and vanilla extract to a Ninja Creami pint container.
  • Place the pint into the outer bowl and lock it into the machine. Select the Milkshake program and process for 2–3 minutes. (No Milkshake setting? Use Ice Cream, then Re-spin.)
  • If the shake looks crumbly or too thick, add a splash more milk and run a Re-spin until smooth.
  • Pour into a glass, add your toppings, and serve immediately.
  • Optional sprinkle rim: Spread sprinkles on a shallow plate. Microwave the mini chocolate chips at 50% power in 90-second bursts until melted (2–3 minutes total), stirring between bursts. Dip each glass rim in the chocolate, roll in sprinkles, and set upright to dry before pouring.

Equipment

  • NInja Creami Machine
  • Ninja Creami Pint Container

Notes

  • Texture control: Less milk = thicker shake; more milk = thinner. Re-spin anytime it's too icy.
  • Dairy-free: Use plant-based vanilla ice cream and a dairy-free milk.
  • Chilled glasses keep your shake colder and frostier for longer.
