Ingredients

• 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp. kosher salt
• 1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 (7.5-oz.) box Annie’s Birthday Cake Bunny Grahams, coarsely chopped (about 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons grahams)
• 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

1. Step 1: In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the softened cream cheese on medium-high speed until smooth.
2. Step 2: Add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and kosher salt to the bowl. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
3. Step 3: Fold in the sweetened condensed milk until fully combined. Then gently fold in 2 cups of the coarsely chopped bunny grahams and 1/2 cup of the rainbow sprinkles.
4. Step 4: Pour the mixture into a 9″ x 5″ loaf pan, filling it to the top. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of bunny grahams and 2 tablespoons of sprinkles evenly over the top.
5. Step 5: Freeze the ice cream until firm, at least 5 hours or preferably overnight for best texture.

Tips & Variations

• For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut cream for heavy cream and use a vegan condensed milk alternative.
• Try adding mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra texture.
• If you don’t have Bunny Grahams, any similar flavored graham crackers or vanilla wafers work well.

Storage

Store the ice cream in the loaf pan covered tightly with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container. Keep frozen for up to one week. To serve, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Ice Cream Base

• 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp. kosher salt
• 1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

Mix-Ins

• 1 (7.5-oz.) box Annie’s Birthday Cake Bunny Grahams, coarsely chopped (about 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons grahams)
• 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

1. Beat Cream Cheese Mixture: In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the softened cream cheese on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy.
2. Whip Cream and Flavor: Add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and kosher salt to the cream cheese and continue beating until stiff peaks form, approximately 2 minutes, creating a thick whipped cream base.
3. Incorporate Condensed Milk and Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk until fully combined. Then fold in 2 cups of the coarsely chopped Bunny Grahams and 1/2 cup of rainbow sprinkles, carefully mixing to distribute the crunchy, colorful bits evenly without deflating the whipped mixture.
4. Transfer to Pan and Top: Pour the graham and sprinkle ice cream mixture into a 9″ x 5″ loaf pan, filling it to the top. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of Bunny Grahams and 2 tablespoons of rainbow sprinkles evenly over the surface for extra texture and visual appeal.
5. Freeze Until Firm: Place the loaf pan in the freezer and chill until the ice cream is firm, which takes at least 5 hours or can be done overnight for best results.
6. Make Ahead Tip: This ice cream can be made up to one week in advance. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and keep frozen until ready to serve.

Notes

• Ensure the cream cheese is softened to prevent lumps in the ice cream base.
• Folding gently is important to maintain the airy, whipped texture.
• Use a loaf pan size close to 9″ x 5″ to ensure proper thickness and freezing consistency.
• Freezing time can vary based on your freezer; overnight freezing ensures the best texture.
• Feel free to swap birthday cake flavor Bunny Grahams for any similar cookie or graham cracker for a different twist.
