Tips for the Creamiest Vegan Funfetti Milkshake in Your Ninja Creami
- Start with vegan vanilla ice cream that is firm and cold, straight from the freezer. Soft, half-melted ice cream turns the shake thin and foamy.
- Pick a rich plant-based ice cream made with coconut cream, cashew, or oat. These have more fat than very light brands and give the shake a thick, smooth body.
- Keep the oat milk cold. Use 1/2 cup (120 ml) for a thick, spoonable shake and add up to 2 more tablespoons (30 ml) only if you want it thinner.
- Crush the sugar cookies into small pieces, about the size of a pea. Big chunks can get stuck around the paddle, and fine crumbs blend into a cake batter flavor.
- Add the sprinkles in two stages. Put 1 tablespoon in the core before spinning and stir the rest in by hand at the end so you still see bright flecks of color.
- Check labels on sprinkles and cookies. Some sprinkles use confectioner’s glaze or colors that are not vegan, so look for ones marked plant-based.
Troubleshooting
- Shake is too thin: Your ice cream was too soft or you added extra milk. Pop the pint in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes, then run MILKSHAKE again.
- Shake is too thick to sip: Add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of oat milk at a time and run a short RE-SPIN or stir well with a long spoon.
- Sprinkles bled color into the shake: That happens when they spin too long. Stir most of the sprinkles in by hand after the cycle ends.
- Flavor tastes plain: Add 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract or a tiny drop of almond extract to the core. It brings out that classic birthday cake taste.
Storage and Serving
A milkshake is meant to be enjoyed right away, so serve this one as soon as the cycle finishes. Use a tall chilled glass, top it with vegan whipped cream, and finish with a pinch of extra sprinkles and a cookie on the rim. A wide straw helps with the cookie bits.
If you have some left over, pour it into a lidded cup and freeze it. Later, put it back in a CREAMi pint, add a splash of oat milk, and run MILKSHAKE again. You can also spoon leftovers into ice pop molds for a fun frozen snack.
Vegan Funfetti Milkshake FAQ
Can I use a different plant milk?
Yes. Almond, soy, or coconut milk all work in this Ninja Creami Vegan Funfetti Milkshake. Oat milk gives the creamiest result, while almond milk makes a lighter shake.
Can I make my own vegan ice cream base for this?
You can. Spin a frozen pint of your favorite vegan vanilla base on the ICE CREAM or LITE ICE CREAM setting first, then use that for the milkshake. Make sure it is still firm before you add the mix-ins.
How many servings does one pint make?
One batch fills about 2 regular glasses or 1 large glass. If you want 4 small servings, pour into short glasses and top each one with whipped cream.
Is this milkshake nut free?
It can be. Choose an oat or coconut based ice cream and check that your cookies and sprinkles are made in a nut free facility.
With a few freezer staples, this Ninja Creami Vegan Funfetti Milkshake is an easy treat for birthdays, sleepovers, or any hot afternoon.
