Homemade Cookie Monster ice cream is creamy ice cream loaded with crunchy Oreos and chocolate chip cookies. You don’t need an ice cream machine to make this simple no-churn recipe — the ice cream freezes overnight in a loaf pan, making it an easy and fun treat!

Cookie Monster ice cream raw ingredients that are labeled

This vibrant blue Cookie Monster ice cream recipe offers an indulgent treat, thanks to whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract for added richness.

What truly sets it apart are the delightful cookie mix-ins, which provide bursts of chocolatey and buttery goodness, making it a playful and flavorful dessert reminiscent of the beloved cookie-loving monster.

You’ll need:

2 cups of whipping cream
10-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk
Blue food coloring
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, optional
10 Mini Oreos
10 Mini Chips Ahoy

COOKIES: Get creative with the cookies that you add to the ice cream.

Cookie Monster’s favorite chocolate chip cookies are essential, but feel free to add your favorites. You can even add our eggless edible cookie dough.

PRO TIP:

Adding crunchy cookies is a must to this recipe, as they hold up beautifully in the ice cream!

MARSHMALLOW: You could add swirls of marshmallow cream or mini marshmallows to this as well.

CHOCOLATE CHIPS: Add in some mini chocolate chips for an even more irresistible chocolate flavor.

COOKIES: Want even more yumminess? Use full-size Oreos and Chips Ahoy to really load up the flavor! You could also use Double Stuf Oreos in this recipe.

The beauty of this ice cream is that you don’t need an ice cream machine to make it, just a bowl and an electric mixer. Let’s get started.

STEP ONE: Use a stand mixer, hand mixer with a wire whisk attachment, or a wire whisk to whip the whipping cream until frothy peaks form. Set aside.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

Freeze the bowl and whisk for a few minutes before whipping the cream. Cream whips best when it is cold, so using cold cream along with cold utensils will give you the best volume.

STEP TWO: Color the sweetened condensed milk with blue food coloring, adding a few drops at a time until it reaches the right shade of bright blue.

If you are using vanilla extract, add it in this step.

STEP THREE: Slowly pour the colored sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream and mix gently until just combined.

If necessary, add a few more drops of food coloring.

STEP FOUR: Pour the mixture into a loaf pan and gently press in the cookies.

STEP FIVE: Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least five hours or overnight.

STEP SIX: Serve with extra Mini Oreos and Mini Chips Ahoy.

How To Serve

For a classic combination, consider pairing it with some freshly baked oatmeal chocolate chip cookies or a warm brownie.

Take your ice cream game up a notch by sandwiching a generous scoop of Cookie Monster ice cream between two chocolate chip cookies.

Blend a few scoops of blue ice cream with milk for a thick and indulgent milkshake.

Elevate your dessert game by creating ice cream sundaes. Layer scoops of ice cream with hot fudge or caramel sauce, whipped cream, and maraschino cherries.

Blue Monster Ice Cream Storage

Whether you want to make it ahead for a special occasion or have leftovers to enjoy later, here’s the scoop on storing your ice cream.

MAKE AHEAD: You can prepare your Cookie Monster ice cream in advance. Once it’s mixed and ready to freeze, transfer it to an airtight container.

Press a layer of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming. Then, seal the container tightly with a lid.

IN THE FREEZER: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month.
