Little Debbie Ice Creams

Back in December 2020, I shared my first homemade version of a Little Debbie ice cream: Christmas Tree Cakes Ice Cream. You can check that out here.

Then in February 2022, Little Debbie officially partnered with Hudsonville Ice Cream to launch a full line of snack cake-inspired flavors. 

The dreamy collection featured everything from Oatmeal Creme Pies and Cosmic Brownies to Star Crunch, Swiss Rolls, Zebra Cakes, Honey Buns, Strawberry Shortcake Rolls, and Nutty Bars.

Swoon-worthy, right?

Since then, I’ve been recreating these favorites at home—one flavor at a time. Today, I’m adding Swiss Rolls Ice Cream to the list, joining:

• Little Debbie Cosmic Brownie Batter Ice Cream
• Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes Ice Cream (holiday favorite)

How to Make Little Debbie Swiss Rolls Ice Cream

1. Grab a large bowl and start by whipping your heavy cream in a hand mixer, on high speed, until stiff peaks form.
2. Add in your sweetened condensed milk and mix on medium speed until well combined. 
3. Add in your pudding mix and FIVE swiss roll cakes.
4. Mix until well combined and each Swiss Roll Cake is broken into pieces. 
5. Pour into a metal bread pan or other prepared pan and spread into an even layer.
6. Crumble the remaining Swiss Rolls and place on top of the ice cream.
7. Place in the freezer overnight.

Pro Tips

• Line your loaf pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup!
• Add a splash of vanilla extract to amp up the flavor.
• If you don’t have a loaf pan, you can use an 8-inch or 9-inch cake pan to freeze your ice cream. You could even call this a Swiss Roll Ice Cream Cake.

Serving Suggestions

Serve in a bowl with Swiss Cake Rolls, a spoonful of marshmallow creme, and a drizzle of Hot Fudge Sauce to be extra indulgent. You could also do a drizzle of homemade chocolate ganache.

Or scoop it onto a homemade waffle cone. No matter how you eat it, you are going to love it!

Storage Directions

Cover any leftover ice cream with a few layers of plastic wrap or move it into a freezer-safe container to prevent freezer burn.
