Ingredients

  • 1 pint heavy whipping cream
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk You can totally make this, too
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
  • 3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • juice & zest from 1 lemon ~2 tbs of juice
  • 2.5 Tbs maple syrup or honey
  • 8 chocolate chip cookies I used crispy GF cookies

Instructions

  • In a medium-size saucepan, place blueberries, maple syrup, lemon juice, and lemon zest over medium heat.
  • Cook until blueberries burst and sauce starts to thicken.
  • Allow sauce to cool.
  • In a stand mixer (or regular bowl), pour heavy whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk and whip until stiff peaks form.
  • While on low speed, add in vanilla and cream cheese (a spoonful at a time).
  • Line a freezer-safe dish with parchment paper and pour in half of the ice cream mixture, then top with half the blueberry sauce mixture. Repeat. Take a knife or a spoon into the blueberry lemon cheesecake ice cream mixture and create zig zags and lines in the pan to lightly mix the ice cream and sauce together.
  • Cover and place in the freezer for 4-6 hours. When you're ready to serve, allow the ice cream to thaw a bit and spoon onto cookies, place cookies on top, and enjoy. Or wrap them up for later. 

Notes

If you want to be a super awesome ice cream sandwich maker, you could freeze the mixture into a paper cup and then cut through the cup to make perfect ice cream circles.
I tried making this ice cream by just mixing everything together. It is much tastier by adding spoonfuls of cream cheese and swirling in the blueberry sauce.
