📋Boo Batter Ice Cream Recipe (no churn)
This copycat Boo Batter Ice Cream is a black Halloween ice cream, made without an ice cream maker (no churn), that tastes like cake batter. It's loaded with cake batter Oreo cookies and Halloween candy like Kit Kat chocolate bars, candy corn, candy eyes and smarties (although you can use any candy you like.)

Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Princess Cake and Cookie Emulsion * or cake batter extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 14 oz. - can of sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter melted and cooled
- ¾ tablespoon super black food coloring * I use Americolor brand
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream well chilled
- 4 chopped up mini kit kats
- 8 chopped/crushed cake batter Oreo cookies
Garnish
- candy corn
- smarties
- broken pieces of mini Kit Kat chocolate bars
- candy eyes
- waffle cones - optional
Instructions
- Chill a medium bowl and beaters (from electric mixer) in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
- Combine the sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, black food coloring, cake and cookie emulsion or cake batter extract and salt into a separate large bowl and whisk together. * You may need to add a little more black food coloring to get the color you want. But remember it darkens when it freezes and you want to use only as much as needed (seee NOTES)
- Chop the Kit Kat Bars in about ½ inch pieces.
- Crush (or chop) the Oreo cookies (I put them in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin).
- Add the crushed Oreos, chopped Kit Kats and about 2 tablespoon of smarties to the black mixture.
- Whip the whipped cream to stiff peaks in the chilled bowl.
- Gently fold in the whipping cream into the black condensed milk mixture.
- Transfer the ice cream into a container you can freeze (I use a loaf pan). Garnish with additional pieces of Kit Kat chocolate bars, candy corn, candy eyes and smarties.
- Cover tightly and freeze for several hours until solid (8 hours or overnight).* I put the loaf pan in a large container.
Notes
🌡️Storing
Store this ice cream in freezer, covered in Glad Press N' Seal (affiliate link). * I like the Glad Press N' Seal because it's heavier than saran wrap and really seals (unlike regular saran wrap in the freezer), keeping food fresh with a leak proof, air tight seal.
Serving: No churn ice cream is quick and easy to make. But be warned, they tend to melt faster than your typical store bought ice cream or ice cream made with an actual ice cream maker. Be sure to serve immediately before it melts!
💭 Top tip
What goes in, also must come out!
Black food coloring is also one of those things that you'll want to be sure you warn your crowd about. Because once it goes in, it must come out. I discovered this when I fed my kids a party cake with black food coloring and they were calling me to the bathroom in a panic. Realizing that there were probably a lot of other party-going kids and parents out there experiencing similar freak-outs, I called everyone that was at the birthday party and gave them the heads up. Fun...
