If you love mascarpone (I absolutely adore it!), then this mascarpone ice cream with raspberry pieces will melt in your mouth. The mascarpone provides an incredibly creamy smoothness, and the raspberry pieces add just the right amount of acidity and freshness. This recipe is ideal if you're looking for a simple yet incredibly indulgent treat!
Ingredients :
- 150 g of mascarpone
- 150 ml of whole milk
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup (or adjust to taste)
- 100g of fresh raspberries
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract (optional, but it adds a great touch)
- A pinch of salt (it brings out the flavors, I recommend it)
Preparation :
- Mix the mascarpone base.
First, in a bowl, thoroughly mix the mascarpone, milk, agave syrup, and vanilla extract if you want that extra touch of sweetness. Whisk well until everything is smooth and homogeneous. Honestly, at this point, the smell of vanilla mascarpone is already irresistible! - Pour into the Ninja Creami container.
Once your mixture is smooth, pour it into the Ninja Creami container. Be careful, as always, not to exceed the MAX FILL . Then, place the container in the freezer for 24 hours . I know, it's the longest step… but be patient, it's worth it! - Churn using the Ice Cream program.
After the 24-hour wait, remove the container and insert it into the Ninja Creami. Select the "Ice Cream" and let the magic happen. In just a few minutes, you'll have ultra-creamy mascarpone ice cream. - Add the raspberry pieces using the Extra mode.
Once the ice cream is ready, add the freshly cut raspberry pieces to the container, then use the "Mix-In" . This mode gently incorporates the raspberries without crushing them, so you keep those tangy pieces in every scoop. The contrast between the sweetness of the mascarpone and the tartness of the raspberries is divine! - Respin Tip:
If the ice cream is a little too firm after the first cycle, use the "Respin" to soften the texture. If necessary, add a little milk for an even creamier consistency.
My Personal Tip:
For an extra touch of indulgence, I recommend adding a drizzle of honey or some chopped pistachios for extra crunch. Mascarpone pairs beautifully with anything fruity and crunchy, so have fun experimenting with toppings.
This mascarpone ice cream with raspberry pieces is a true explosion of textures and flavors: the creaminess of the mascarpone, the tangy tang of the raspberries, and that perfect texture thanks to Ninja Creami. Enjoy without moderation!
