Homemade chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream is delicious and easy to make. It’s egg-free so even easier and quicker. It’s perfect for a Kitchen Aid ice cream attachment.
Every birthday I requested brownies and homemade ice cream instead of cake. I’ve always loved homemade ice cream. While I’ve had an ice cream ball I haven’t made it in awhile. It took a fair amount of time to make that way.
Recently I got the ice cream attachment for my KitchenAid stand mixer. It’s so easy to use and I don’t have to spend as much time making the ice cream so I feel I’m going to use it more often.
I love that it uses my KitchenAid stand mixer and isn’t a separate appliance I have to store. I store the bowl in my freezer so it’s ready when the mood strikes.
The first ice cream I had to try was a basic vanilla and my husband requested some edible cookie dough so of course, I throw that in. We both loved it and it’s going to be a regular in our home.
Homemade ice cream is great because you can control the ingredients. A lot of ice creams have questionable ingredients. This ice cream uses simple ingredients. You likely already have them on hand.
You can even leave out the cookie dough, it will still be delicious. It’s a great base recipe for anything you want to add in. You also can change the type of dairy you use. I used half cream and half milk but you can use all cream, half and half, whatever works best for you. You can use all milk but it will be a little icy and not as creamy.
I can’t wait to create more ice cream flavors and you can be sure the good ones will end up here. Feel free to send me some suggestions. I love creating unique flavors.

It’s so easy. The cookie dough can even be made ahead of time and then it’s even quicker.

Oh, that looks delicious! We have an old fashioned ice cream maker (that you crank) and it has been years since we used it.

Good exercise as well! My grandparents had one and us kids would take turns cranking it.

I love how simple it is! I have an ice cream maker but many of the recipes are so involved. I’d love to give this one a try!

True, so many call for eggs so you have to make a custard. It’s delicious but takes so much more time and dirties more dishes.

I didn’t know there’s an ice cream attachment for the kitchen aid! That’s great! I love ice cream, so that will be useful for me.

Yummmmmmers! I am pinning this! I just ordered the Kitchenaid Artisan so I can’t wait to put it to work. Ice cream is a favorite in our house since it’s always hot here in Texas! I will definitely keep the cookie dough in for this recipe!

We got the ice cream attachment for free when we bought our mixer a few years ago – I’ve been meaning to try it all this time, but never have! Thanks for the recipe – this is my husband’s favorite flavor, so it’s great to know how to make it!
