Sabrina’s Tip
If I have some extra time, I like to let the ice cream base chill before churning. While this recipe is ready to go in just minutes, starting with a colder base helps the ice cream churn faster, giving it an extra creamy texture! Of course, always make sure your ice cream insert is frozen solid and pull it out at the very last minute so it isn’t sitting out and thawing while you make the mixture.

Your recipe lists 2 cups Half and Half, however, in the directions it says mix heavy cream. Those are totally different and wondered which is correct? I believe it should be 2 cups heavy cream?? Thank you, can’t wait to try this.
You’re correct. It should read heavy cream. I just edited the recipe card to read correctly. Thanks for catching that.
I love Sprinkles! I can’t remember the last time I actually had some.
I have a toddler, so I am perpetually covered in them, haha.
Some of my neighbors have been afraid to use their ice cream maker due to an unfortunate incident with a recipe that included eggs – I can’t wait to show them this! And maybe invite myself over to their house after they make it 😀
Haha I had a problem with eggs in ice cream once too. My chocolate ice cream had little chunks of egg in it!! Gross, haha.
My favorite 4-year-old loves Birthday Cake Ice Cream. Can’t wait to make this with her. 🙂
I hope she loves it!
Would this work without dairy? Like coconut cream and coconut milk? My boys would love this, but we both have allergies.
I have never tried with coconut milk but I have definitely seen others substitute it in ice cream recipes!
I remember putting sprinkles in our ice cream maker one year and it turned out horrible. All the colors mixed together and made gray ice cream – yuck!
If you find the colors running I recommend the circle confetti type sprinkles. Those colors don’t run at all! 🙂 I usually add mine at the very end and get minimal color bleeding.
Ice cream…. my weakness! This recipe looks right up my alley! Yum!
Me too! Especially cake batter!
My daughter is going to love this. I love Cold Stone’s ice cream. It’ll will be nice to make this at home!
My oldest loves pouring the sprinkles into the ice cream machine (and then cries as they disappear into the ice cream…ah the joys of toddlers!).
I love cake batter. This sounds like it would be an amazing recipe to try out and the e-book looks amazing.
Thanks Vera! I am so excited it launched finally because I was starting to go batty looking at it over and over again.
Looks delicious and so perfect for the summer!
Thanks!
You always make me so hungry! I should know better than to visit before dinner! Love this ice cream recipe!
Haha, I try to avoid my blog when hungry. It is even worse for me because so many of the recipes are favorites. When I see a pin for the Spicy Cashew Chicken I get a craving EVERY TIME and it drives me nuts, lol.
My grandkids would love this one! Congrats on your ebook!
Thanks Linda! I think the sprinkles cake batter flavor may be a universal kid favorite, even my SUPER picky toddler loves it.
This recipe looks delicious! I would love to eat it that’s for sure. Thanks for sharing.
That looks yummy! I am sure my kids would love it!
Thanks!
Your ebook sounds awesome and I really appreciate the provided shopping list too. Don’t worry about this ice cream getting love either, I got it covered!
Haha! Thank you! Someone has this recipe’s back! I’m so excited about the e-book!
Cake batter ice cream sounds so decadent. I am definitely going to have to try this.
Yep! With the heavy cream, it definitely is!
I love cook books. It is always fun to try new recipes. I am excited about this E book.
Thank you! I am so excited about it going live!
This sounds like a perfect treat for a hot summer day! Homemade ice cream is always so rich and creamy, I love it.
Yes! Perfect for the summer!
This looks so amazing. I’m going to recreate this with coconut milk and see how it turns out!
Oh that sounds totally delicious. Now I want some made with coconut milk too!
I giggled when I looked at your picture because it’s the EXACT reason I won’t eat ice cream from a cone – I hate drips. This does sound really good, though….just in a bowl 😉
Yep, the downfall of ice cream (especially with my toddler!). I am ALWAYS wiping, haha.
Ok adding cake mix to the ice cream – epic! And yay for your ebook, signing up for your email right now!
YAY! I hope you love the cookbook!
