Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the canned pumpkin puree, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt into the cream cheese mixture. Mix on medium speed until fully combined and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer your blended mixture into a covered container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions for about 20-30 minutes.
- During the last few minutes of churning, gently fold in the crushed graham crackers and optional chopped pecans.
- Scoop the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
- When ready to serve, scoop the Pumpkin Cheesecake Ice Cream Delight into bowls or cones.
Notes
For best results, ensure cream cheese is softened completely. Chill mixture thoroughly before churning for enhanced flavors.
