Monster Cookie Dough Ice Cream is sure to become a new family favorite! Made with eggless, edible cookie dough, this ice cream is made without a machine!
Cookie dough week just wouldn’t be complete without ice cream. Cookie dough ice cream is one of the boy’s favorite flavors and I have to admit, mine too. There’s just one thing better than cookie dough ice cream however, Monster Cookie Dough Ice Cream. And better yet – you don’t even need an ice cream machine for this recipe!
The trick to really excellent cookie dough ice cream is flash freezing the little cookie dough nuggets. It IS an extra step – but totally worth it. Freezing for 30 minutes or so will keep the cookie dough intact when added to the heavy cream mixture. I used a melon scoop to create my cookie dough balls but a teaspoon or your fingers would work just fine.
I’m sure I don’t need to tell you how much the boys loved this ice cream. It was pure torture having to wait for it to set up over night. The good part? This cookie dough is made without eggs and is totally edible. Scored some major mom points right there. I served the ice cream in these adorable waffle cups and sprinkled on even more M&Ms for my chocolate-loving family.
I used about two-thirds of the cookie dough in the ice cream. You can use it all if you want lots of cookie dough in there or you can just put the remaining amount in the fridge and enjoy at your leisure.
This ice cream is PERFECT as is but I say everything is better with a little drizzle of caramel…
I mean, who wouldn’t want to just DIG IN to this right now??
I do realize that many of you are still coping with cooler weather but I think this ice cream can truly be enjoyed year round, so give it a try!
Well the cookie dough love doesn’t stop here my friends! Make sure to check out all the other bloggers participating in Cookie Dough Week. All kinds of awesome being created!

Good tip about freezing the cookie dough! My problem is they may not all make it into the ice cream! They would surely become my snack! Love this ice cream idea Trish!
