A silky, luscious no-churn ice cream featuring rich salted caramel flavor, easy to make with simple ingredients and minimal equipment. Perfect for a quick homemade dessert without the fuss of an ice cream maker.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups (480 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) salted caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt flakes
  • Optional: 1/2 cup (60 g) chopped toasted pecans or walnuts
  • Optional: 1/3 cup (60 g) chocolate chips or chunks
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon bourbon

Instructions

  1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters for about 15 minutes in the fridge or freezer.
  2. Pour 2 cups (480 ml) of heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl. Beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. In a separate large bowl, combine 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk with 3/4 cup (180 ml) salted caramel sauce and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir gently until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture using a rubber spatula, folding in thirds to retain air, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. If desired, fold in optional mix-ins like nuts or chocolate chips, reserving some for topping.
  6. Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Spread evenly and drizzle extra salted caramel sauce on top. Use a knife or skewer to swirl the caramel.
  7. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top.
  8. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight. Before serving, let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes for easier scooping.

Notes

Chill mixing bowl and beaters before whipping cream for best results. Fold whipped cream gently to keep mixture airy and creamy. Use good quality caramel sauce for best flavor. Freeze at least 6 hours or overnight for firm texture. Let ice cream soften 5-10 minutes before scooping. Can be adapted for dairy-free by substituting coconut cream and dairy-free caramel sauce.
