1 Ice Cream Container (compatible with Ninja Creami)
1 measuring cup and spoons
Ingredients
2cups480 ml Whole Milk
1cup240 ml Heavy Cream
1/2cup100 g Sugar
1cup240 ml Salted Caramel Sauce (store-bought or homemade)
1teaspoonVanilla Extract
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Salted Caramel Sauce
If making the salted caramel sauce from scratch, melt 1/2 cup (115 g) butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 cup (200 g) brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Gradually add 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens. Stir in 1 teaspoon sea salt and remove from heat. Allow the sauce to cool completely.
Step 2: Make the Ice Cream Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups whole milk and 1 cup heavy cream. Add 1/2 cup sugar and whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved. Stir in the cooled salted caramel sauce and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well until fully combined.
Step 3: Freeze the Mixture
Pour the ice cream mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container. Make sure it doesn’t exceed the fill line. Freeze the container for at least 24 hours or until completely firm.
Step 4: Churn in the Ninja Creami
Once the mixture is fully frozen, insert the pint container into the Ninja Creami machine. Select the Ice Cream setting and allow the machine to churn the ice cream to a smooth, creamy consistency.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Scoop the salted caramel ice cream into bowls or cones and serve immediately. If you prefer a firmer texture, place the ice cream back in the freezer for an additional 20–30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Storage: Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer. Let it sit out for 5-10 minutes before scooping if it becomes too hard.
Dairy-Free Option: To make a dairy-free version, substitute the whole milk and heavy cream with coconut milk or almond milk. Use dairy-free caramel sauce to maintain the flavor.
Sweetness Adjustments: You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sugar to the base, depending on your preference.
