Special Equipment:

food processor, and ice cream maker if you have one

Method

  1. Pour the heavy cream into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment.
  2. Pulse for about 1 minute, until cream is whipped and thick.
  3. Add dulce de leche and pulse until well combined and smooth.
  4. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and freeze according to your manufacturer’s instructions. When it’s done churning, pour it into a covered container and freeze at least 4 hours before serving.
  5. Or, you can pour the mixture into a container, cover and freeze overnight until firm.

  • salt to taste for a salted-caramel ice cream
    • add a splash of bourbon or dark rum
    • toast some pecans or walnuts in a little butter and salt and add them in towards the end of the process, for a butter pecan caramel ice cream
