A rich and indulgent no-churn salted caramel ice cream recipe that requires no ice cream maker and uses simple pantry staples for a creamy homemade dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (360 ml) heavy cream, well chilled
  • 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) salted caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional add-ins:
  • ½ cup (60 g) chopped pecans or toasted walnuts
  • Chocolate chips or swirls of fudge sauce
  • A splash of bourbon or rum

Instructions

  1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge for 15 minutes before starting.
  2. Pour the chilled heavy cream into the bowl and beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. Avoid overwhipping.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, salted caramel sauce, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir gently to blend.
  4. If using, fold in bourbon or nuts into the caramel mixture.
  5. Add about one-third of the whipped cream to the caramel mixture and fold gently using a rubber spatula to lighten the base.
  6. Fold in the remaining whipped cream carefully to keep the mixture light and airy with swirls of caramel.
  7. Transfer the mixture into a loaf pan or airtight freezer container and smooth the top.
  8. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  9. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften.

Notes

Use well-chilled heavy cream for best whipping results. Gently fold whipped cream to keep airiness. Warm thick caramel slightly for easier folding. For marbled effect, swirl extra caramel on top before freezing. Let ice cream soften 5-10 minutes before scooping. Store in airtight container up to 2 weeks, pressing plastic wrap on surface to prevent freezer burn.
