Cheesecake Ice Cream Recipe

Published: | Updated: | By Ashlee

Jump to Recipe

This is actually one of the very first ice cream recipes I ever made!  One of the first recipes on my blog, I’m redoing it and resharing it (cause back then no one read my blog, and you all need this recipe in your life).  It totally tastes like cheesecake, and you guys know I love a good cheesecake. So grab your favorite Ice Cream Maker and give cheesecake ice cream a whirl!


It’s great plain, with another dessert, OR my favorite, inside a waffle cone bowl and topped with cherry pie topping and crushed graham cracker crumble.  Mmmmm Seriously so good!  Any topping you add to cheesecake will tastes great with this ice cream.  And it pairs so well with things like my flourless chocolate cake or perfect chocolate brownies and I LOVE it with my peanut butter cookies.  It add’s a cheese tang to the desserts.

Even my husband, not a cheesecake fan, love this dessert, cause the flavor is there, but not too strong.  Next time I’m going to skip the cherries and go straight to my Caramel Sauce.  Maybe I’ll make little graham cracker pie shells too… Seriously the possibilities are endless!

      Do you add this mixture to a regular homemade ice cream recipe? I made it as is and put in our electric ice cream maker and it didn’t make much at all . After I tried and failed, my husband thought maybe we were supposed to add it to a regular homemade ice cream recipe.

      My ice cream machine is a 1.5 quart Cuisinart. So if you have a larger machine you’ll need to make a larger batch. The mixture all together should be around 4 cups when you add it to the machine.
