Ninja Creami

Ingredients

1 tablespoon cream cheese softened
1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream or half and half
1 cup whole milk
1 cup strawberries cut into quarters

Instructions

Put the cream cheese in a mixing bowl. Microwave for 10 seconds if it’s not yet softened.
Add the sugar and vanilla extract. Whisk together until smooth.
Pour in the heavy cream and milk. Whisk to combine.
Pour the mixture into the Creami pint jar. Add in the strawberries. Cover with the lid and freeze for 24 hours.
When ready, remove the pint jar from the freezer and secure it in the blending jar. Turn on the Ninja Creami. Slide the blending jar into the machine and lock it in to the right.
Select top, bottom, or full, depending on how much of the pint jar you want to mix. Select the ice cream setting with the dial. Press the dial in to start. It will take 2 minutes to blend.
When done, push the button on the left of the machine to release the blending jar, then slide it out of the machine and remove the lid.
If you want add-ins, create a hole in the center of the ice cream, plop in your add-ins. Put the blending jar back into the machine and press the add-ins button.

Notes

If your ice cream turns out powdery, it’s because the ice cream is very cold. Put it back in the machine and run the Re-Spin cycle. This will make the ice cream creamier.
The higher the quality of the ingredients you use, the better the ice cream will turn out. The quality of the strawberries has the highest impact on the flavor.
I've used half and half instead of whole cream a few times and it's turned out really good, though not quite as creamy. You can try it both ways to see how you like it best.
