Print Recipe

A rich and velvety no-churn ice cream featuring a salty-sweet caramel swirl, made easily at home without an ice cream maker.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (120 ml) salted caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Optional: flaky sea salt for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Pour the heavy cream into the chilled bowl and whip with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture to keep the base light and fluffy.
  5. Pour half of the salted caramel sauce into the ice cream base and stir lightly to distribute some caramel without fully mixing.
  6. Transfer half of the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container. Drizzle half of the remaining caramel on top.
  7. Add the rest of the ice cream mixture, then the remaining caramel sauce. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the caramel through the ice cream base.
  8. Cover the container and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.
  9. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.

Notes

Chill your bowl and beaters before whipping cream for best volume. Fold ingredients gently to keep the base airy. Warm caramel slightly if too thick for easier swirling. Let ice cream soften 5-10 minutes before scooping. Store in airtight container up to two weeks. Optional add-ins include toasted nuts or chocolate chips.
