Ingredients You Need for No Churn Banana Pudding Cheesecake Ice Cream
Sweetened Condensed Milk: This shelf-stable dairy is a baker’s best friend! It can add lush, creamy sweetness to practically anything. In this recipe, the sweetened condensed milk combines with the heavy cream to make a smooth and sweet ice cream base.
Vanilla Extract or Vanilla Bean Paste: This staple ingredient adds a satisfying sweetness. Vanilla bean paste has a wonderfully authentic flavor, but if you use high-quality, pure vanilla extract you can get the same delectable sweetness.
Heavy Cream: This is the key to thick, creamy ice cream. Heavy cream contains about 36% butterfat. That makes it very thick, decadent, and perfect for no churn ice cream recipes!
Brown Sugar: A touch of brown sugar adds that signature syrupy sweetness that everyone expects from banana pudding.
Cinnamon and Nutmeg: These inviting spices bring a lovely warmth to mellow out all the sumptuous sweet notes in this dessert.
Salt: Salt works double-duty in this recipe. It adds a balancing savory note but it also helps the base to freeze into a smooth textured ice cream. Salt combats the buildup of excess ice crystals during freezing.
Bananas: These yellow fruits are optional, but small bites of banana in the ice cream make each bite a little more exciting.
Nilla Wafers or Chessman Cookies: Each of these light buttery cookies has a satisfying crunch, so choose your favorite style.
Philadelphia No-Bake Cheesecake: This ingredient is awesome! Look for it at Walmart and select other grocery stores in the refrigerated section. It is a ready-to-use cheesecake filling perfect for scooping into this easy banana pudding ice cream.

Expert Tips
To freeze this tasty ice cream, you will need a foil-lined bread pan. Use this hack to get the foil to fit just right. Flip the bread pan over and cover it with foil. Flip it back and press the molded foil into the pan.
When it comes to the cookies, size matters! The different cookies take to freezing differently, so having the right size pieces is key to a nice ice cream texture. If you are using Cheeseman Cookies, crush them; whereas for Nilla Wafers work well when chopped into chunks.
Extra Tasty Additions
This ice cream already has a lot going on. From the creamy and pleasantly spiced ice cream to the cookie crumble to the cheesecake swirls, you can hardly wish for more, but when it comes to dessert, more is more!
If you want to put a tasty twist on this epic ice cream, try adding caramel morsels or drizzle between the layers. Another tasty choice is butterscotch chips or creamy butterscotch drizzle.
You can even mix in a little extra fruity freshness by adding some diced strawberry or cooked apple to the banana pieces. Have fun making this lush treat totally your own!
Serving Ideas
Waiting is the hardest part! But after the ice cream is nicely set it’s ready to serve! Enjoy it cold with a little butterscotch or caramel drizzle and whipped cream.
