FAQs: Ninja Creami Chocolate Ice Cream

Why is my Ninja Creami ice cream crumbly?

The Ninja Creami ice cream needs to be spun twice for a smooth texture. If it remains crumbly, try adding a splash of milk before re-spinning.

Can I use a different type of milk?

Yes, any milk alternative can be substituted. Soy milk was used in this recipe.

What if I don’t have a Ninja Creami?

While the texture won’t be the same, you can blend the mixture in a food processor.
