No-Churn Salted Caramel Ice-Cream!
A deliciously creamy, sweet & salty ice cream for all you salted caramel lovers out there – best thing about it, you don’t need an ice cream machine!
Ice cream
I loooove ice cream. This is obvious. However, my love for it has grown insane amounts after I travelled to Italy. Gelato was part of my diet, a staple in my diet if you will – the sugar helped me through walking across the city with the heat, and it was DELICIOUS.
I tried as many flavours you could possibly imagine, my favourite being salted caramel and mint chocolate chip – and I just knew I had to create my own recipes! There are recipes for all occasions – raspberry ripple for a summer BBQ, black forest for a Christmas gathering and Pina colada for girls night!
No churn recipes
I do have a fair few no-churn ice cream recipes – some of my most popular being my Kinder Bueno ice cream, Biscoff ice cream, Terry’s chocolate orange ice cream, and my Nutella ice cream! I love how easy and quick it is and every time I have a craving for ice cream, I have the simple ingredients to make it straight away!
I will say now, it is even more delicious then I expected it to be for a quick no-churn recipe to make at home yourself with ease! It only has 5 ingredients, and it takes minutes to make to then freeze – you don’t need an ice-cream machine, so you have no excuse to not make it!
Ice cream all year round!
After the success of my no-churn mint chocolate ice cream recently I thought that making the other of my two favourite flavours from Rome seemed an absolute must! It seriously is an amazing city, and the gelato is to die for – perfect for the climate!
I also realise its going into autumn now, the summer heat is fading, and coats are a near must when going out in the evenings these days – but ice cream is always in my house, even at Christmas!
Serve
I serve my ice cream either in sundae dishes, in chocolate covered cones, in plain waffle cones… or I grab the tub and a spoon and eat it all to myself. Seriously… its happened before.
This ice cream flavour goes perfectly with a chocolate dipped cone, more caramel or toffee sauce and sometimes I like to add a few fudge chunks! You can make an ice cream sundae with this or even pop it on the side of a warmed brownie with yet more caramel sauce – DELIGHTFUL!

Ingredients
- 600 ml double cream
- 397 g Carnations caramel (or Dulce De Leche)
- 1-2 tsp sea salt
- 200 g dark chocolate (chopped)
- Caramel/toffee ice cream sauce
Instructions
-
In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment (or a large bowl with a hand-held whisk), whisk together the Carnations caramel and the double cream on a medium-high speed until smooth – this can take a couple of minutes.
-
Continue to whisk the mixture until it’s very thick and holds itself.
-
Fold through the chopped chocolate and sea salt evenly.
-
Test how salty the ice cream is by tasting it! If you find it salty enough then pour into a freezer proof container or a tin, If not, add a bit more! (See my note below).
-
Drizzle your sauce over and swirl it through the ice-cream.
-
Cover with a lid or some cling film and freeze for at least 5-6 hours, or overnight!
-
Remove from the freezer about 30 minutes before you want to serve it and store it in the fridge – as its homemade, it may be a bit hard straight out the freezer! Serve how you like and enjoy!
Notes
- BE CAREFUL with the amount of salt you use – I used 2 teaspoons as I like mine relatively salty, and I use proper flakes of sea salt so they cause less impact – if you use finely ground salt, you will want to use about 1/2 level tsp of salt – so taste test it as you go!
- You could swap up the flavours of the sauce you use if you like, I often use toffee as it goes so well with the caramel flavour theme!
- This will last in the freezer for 1 month.
ENJOY!
