How to Make No-Churn Cheesecake Ice Cream
- Add the heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
- Start your mixer speed on low speed and gradually work up to high speed, beating the cream cheese mixture until it becomes thick and forms stiff peaks.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, and vanilla extract and fold them into the cream gently– you don’t want to deflate the whipped cream so the best way to do this is slowly and gently.
- Next add the graham crackers and fold them in.
- Transfer the mixture to a loaf pan or silicone ice cream tub and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap.
- Place it in the freezer for at least 12 hours, preferably overnight.
- Scoop and serve with your choice of toppings. Store wrapped in the freezer in an airtight container or freezer container for up to three weeks.
Topping Ideas for Cheesecake Ice Cream
Now that you’ve created the best homemade ice cream, let’s talk about what to put on top of the ice cream! A family favorite around here is fresh strawberries from the garden or strawberry jam or raspberry sauce. This takes your cheesecake ice cream and uses it as an ice cream base and allows you to mix it with favorite fruits to create any type of cheesecake ice cream that you like!
Other favorite ice cream toppings include: cherry pie filling, mini chocolate chips, brown sugar, crushed graham crackers – or actually place the ice cream in a graham cracker crust and make an ice cream pie!
Even better, try fresh blueberries and instantly turn your homemade ice cream into homemade blueberry cheesecake ice cream! See what I’m doing here? Fresh fruit instantly turns your no-churn ice cream recipe into whatever creation you want!

I’m confused. “Add the heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
Start your mixer speed on low speed and gradually work up to high speed, beating the cream cheese mixture until it becomes thick and forms stiff peaks.
Add the sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, and vanilla extract and fold them into the cream gently.”
When do you actually add the cream cheese?
