How do you know when Ninja Creami Custard Cream Ice Cream is ready?

Your ice cream mixture will need to be frozen for at least 4 hours before it’s ready to be served. 

Remember to remove it from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to make it easier to scoop.

How long can you keep Ninja Creami Custard Cream Ice Cream in the freezer?

You can make a big batch of this Ninja Creami Custard Cream Ice Cream and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months. Ninja recommends flattening the mix before refreezing.

Just remember to store it in a freezer-safe container with a lid. Label it with what’s inside and the date you first froze the ice cream.

If your ice cream is still soft, there’s no need to re-spin the mix. If your ice cream is a little solid, you may want to re-spin it. It’ll break up the biscuits a little more, but the ice cream itself will still be scrummy.
