Hi Bold Bakers!
Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream has to be one of the world’s most popular brands of ice cream. They have tons of imaginative flavors with great ingredients that blow others out of the water.
My favorite was Dublin Mudslide, however after a 2 year stint that flavor ended up in the flavor graveyard. Apparently not everyone liked it as much as I did.
I asked on my Facebook and Instagram pages for your favorite flavors and the response was crazy! You guys love Ben & Jerry’s.
You helped create a Top 5 list of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Creams flavors that now you can make in your very own Homemade No Machine Version.
And if you didn’t see your favorite Ben & Jerry’s flavor, then send me your request in the comments and I might be able to make it next time.
To make our flavors we are using my Two Ingredient No Machine Ice Cream recipe. For those of you who haven’t seen that recipe, it is homemade ice cream made using just whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk. And you don’t need an ice cream machine!

Homemade Ben & Jerry’s Strawberry Cheesecake: Cheesecake ice cream, Strawberries, thick Graham cracker swirl
My absolute favorite. I could eat a tub of this on my own.
Leave some cookie chunks in your ice cream. And you can always use digestive biscuits instead of graham crackers.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (16oz/450 ml) Ice cream base
- ½ cup (4oz/115g) cream cheese
- ½ cup (4oz/115g) Graham cracker (or digestive biscuits)
- 3 tbsp Strawberry puree

- In a large bowl add in your cream cheese and whisk it to lighten it up
- Add in the rest of your ice cream ingredients and gently fold them all together
- Place in a large sealable container and freeze at least 6 hours or overnight before eating. Keep for up to 2 weeks.
Homemade Ben & Jerry’s Phish Food: Chocolate Ice Cream, Marshmallows, Chocolate Fish, Caramel Swirl
My mum would buy a tub of this to serve 5 kids. I still have no idea how she did it!
Ingredients
- 3 oz (90g) good quality chocolate (dark or milk)
- 2 cups (16oz/450 ml) Ice cream base
- ¼ cup (2oz/60g) chocolate chips (or fish)
- 1 cup (8oz/ 225g) marshmallows (fluff or marshmallows melted)
- ¼ cup (2oz/60g) Caramel sauce
Instructions
- In a large bowl gently melt your chocolate, taking care not letting it get too warm
- Once the chocolate has cooled swiftly mix in your ice cream base with a spatula. Mix quickly so the chocolate doesn’t set and harden
- Add in the rest of your ice cream ingredients and gently fold them all together
- Place in a large sealable container and freeze at least 6 hours or overnight before eating. Keep for up to 2 weeks.
Homemade Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia: Cherry Ice Cream with Cherries and Fudge Flakes
I get a lot of requests for black forest gateau. I’m guessing a lot of you like cherries and chocolate. It’s not my favorite flavor but it did turn out lovely.
You actually don’t need to add cherry flavor if you have in-season cherries.
We use fudge in this ice cream because it doesn’t freeze as solid as chocolate.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ (12oz/360g) ice cream base
- ½ cup (4oz/115g) pureed cherries
- ¼ cup (2oz/60g) fudge chunks or chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large bowl add in all of your ice cream ingredients and gently fold them all together.
- Place in a large sealable container and freeze at least 6 hours or overnight before eating. Keep for up to 2 weeks.
Homemade Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked: Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream, Fudge Brownie and Gobs of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
This is a whole lot of ice cream! I wasnt sure what what “gobs” of cookie dough was supposed to be but I just rolled out some edible cookie dough chunks and there you go!
Ingredients
- 1 ⅕ oz (45g) good quality chocolate (dark or milk)
- 1 ½ (12oz/360g) Ice cream base
- ½ cup (4oz/115g) Fudge brownie chunks
- ½ cup (4oz/115g) cookie dough gobs
Instructions
- In a large bowl gently melt your chocolate taking care not letting it get too warm
- Once the chocolate has cooled swiftly mix in your 1 CUP of ice cream base with a spatula. Mix quickly so the chocolate doesn’t set and harden
- Add in the rest of your ice cream ingredients including the ½ cup of plain vanilla base.
- Gently fold all of the ingredients together
- Place in a large sealable container and freeze at least 6 hours or overnight before eating. Keep for up to 2 weeks.

Where do I find the ice-cream containers?
Hi Gemma, many thanks for these wonderful ice cream flavours. This is one of my favourite brands. Recently I am obsessed with Ben&Jerry’s salted caramel Almond. It will be highly appreciated if u share recipe for this one.
Thank you
Hi Gemma thank you for this ice cream recipe. It works beautifully and so far I’ve added blackcurrants just softened in the microwave, not sweetened, and the same with gooseberries. Both are delicious. Do you have a recipe for coffee ice cream and one for salted caramel? I think these are my favourite.
Hi Gemma – you have inspired me as your recipe for cones came up on FB – I am totally hooked! 2 questions – (I am in UK), do I buy whipping cream or double cream (which can go took thick if not careful). And if I just want to use fruit to add should this be fresh fruit – eg. strawberries? Thanks so much Gemma.
What is the ice cream base recipe?
Hi Gemma..I always make chocolate fudge using melted chocolate, condensed milk and butter but it doesn’t set hard like your chuncks..can you please help me?
Hi Gemma. I recently discovered your website and got some maxing recipe ideas. But the 2 ingredient Icecream I made tasted only like cream not “ice cream”. I used whipping cream and store bought condensed milk. What do you think went wrong .
Would really appreciate your feed back as I want to try more flavours.
Love
Rania
Instead of melting chocolate, can I just use Nutella? Also, is vanilla base just the ice cream base or is it separate? Thank You!
Hiii Gemma!! So there’s a limited batch of Ben n Jerry’s called Goodbye yellow brickle road. Unfortunately for me, it’s is no longer available as it is limited edition. Do you think i could replicate it? Also i am absolutely in love with your recipes!!
I am looking for amount of cacao powder and peanut butter to use in recipes I love peanut butter and the rest want chocolate but I cannot find the amount of either to use.
