I scream, you scream, we all scream for Caramel Ice Cream with Caramel Swirl.
Please pass the spoon.
Ice cream is an easy way to the hubby's heart, it speaks his love language.
The kids love to help make ice cream and it is so super easy. A double win, win!
I love homemade ice cream simply because I know what is in it and there is no added chemicals to maintain freshness and it simply tastes better.
Caramel Ice Cream with Caramel Swirl is the best way to end a hot summers day. Store bought ice cream just can't compare.
Sorry the pictures are old. Caramel Ice Cream with Caramel Swirl was originally published 06/13/12. I wanted to re-share the recipe with the easy printable recipe card incase you missed this the first time.
Pour cream and milk in to large sauce pan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
In a heat proof container mix eggs and sugar.
Stir simmering milk into egg yolks a 1/4 cup at a time, stirring constantly until 2 cups cream has been added.
Stir milk/egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan.
Return to a simmer over medium heat. Cook about 2 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Stir in Caramel Sauce until dissolved.
Add vanilla and refrigerate until cold or place in the freezer to cool faster for about 1-1 1/2 hours.
If using the freezer option please watch closely so it doesn't freeze.
Place cooled custard into an ice cream maker and process according to manufacturers directions for 20 minutes.
Then drizzle in caramel.
Or if looking for larger caramel swirls stir in by hand. Place ice cream into a freezer proof container. (I use a old yogurt container.
Freeze for 2 hours minimum and 5 hours for a nice hard ice cream.
If you have one of these munchkins around your house you can let them clean the beaters to save on dishes. Ha..Ha.. Just kidding I still had to wash it when he was done!
