Step-by-step instruction without your screen going to sleep

  • 1 tablespoon cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/3 cup candy cane pieces

Utensils

  • Microwave-Safe Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Step 1

    In a large, microwave-safe bowl, microwave the cream cheese for 10 seconds. Add the sugar and peppermint extract and with a whisk or rubber spatula, combine until the mixture looks like frosting, about 60 seconds.

  • Step 2

    Slowly mix in the heavy cream and milk until fully combined and sugar is dissolved.

  • Step 3

    Pour base into an empty CREAMi™ Place storage lid on pint and freeze for 24 hours.

  • Step 4

    Remove pint from freezer and remove lid from pint. Place pint in outer bowl, install Creamerizer™ Paddle onto outer bowl lid, and lock the lid assembly on the outer bowl. Place bowl assembly on motor base and twist the handle right to raise the platform and lock in place.

  • Step 5

    Select ICE CREAM.

  • Step 6

    With a spoon, create a 1 ½-inch wide whole that reaches the bottom of the pint. During this process, it is okay for your treat to press above the MAX FILL line. Add candy cane pieces to the hole in the pint and process again using the MIX-IN program.

  • Step 7

    When processing is complete, remove ice cream from pint and serve immediately.
