Ingredients

  • cups half and half
  • 3 tablespoons instant vanilla pudding mix
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ –⅓ cup crushed ginger cookies

Instructions

  • Combine half and half, pudding mix, cinnamon, ginger, and brown sugar in a bowl. Whisk until smooth.

  • Pour into a Ninja Creami pint container (don’t go past the fill line).
  • Freeze upright for 12–24 hours until completely solid.

  • Try adding a pinch of nutmeg or cloves for extra holiday spice.
