With only 4 ingredients you can make this absolutely delicious No Churn Caramel Ice Cream. Easy, tasty and a fun recipe to have for the spring and summer!
Caramel and me go really well together. I love it on all the things, and when I say all the things like I will drizzle it on anything that would taste good with caramel.
This Caramel Ice Cream is one of my favorite simple flavors. I also love making no churn ice cream as it is super easy to make. If you have kids in the house this is the perfect recipe to have them help with.
We make this a lot in the warmer months along with other various ice creams, but this Caramel Ice Cream has to be one of my favorite and most simple versions we do.
If I don’t have to buy a tub of ice cream from the store I won’t, as long as I can make it at home that is what I like to do best. That pertains to most of my recipes as well.
Any take-out or recipe that I can buy, I try to recreate it at home so I’m not only saving money, I’m still getting to enjoy the things I absolutely love.

Sweetened condensed milk
Caramel sauce
Kosher salt

HOW TO MAKE NO CHURN CARAMEL ICE CREAM:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl with an electric hand mixer, whip the whipping cream on high until it forms soft peaks. The cream will almost double in size and will leave a ribbon behind for soft peaks.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk to the bowl, and mix to combine.
- Add half of the caramel sauce and salt and mix until incorporated.
- Pour ⅓ of the mixture into a 9×5″ loaf pan.
- Add ½ of the remaining caramel over the ice cream and then pour another ⅓ of the ice cream mixture on top.
- Add the remaining caramel sauce. Top with the rest of the ice cream mixture. Cover with foil, and place in the freezer for 6 hours, up to overnight until frozen.

WHAT IS NO CHURN ICE CREAM:
No Churn Ice Cream is essentially heavy whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, and other flavorings that are beaten and frozen into a container until it hardens.
No Churn Ice Cream can be adapted to many different flavors (like shown above) and sizes depending on how much you want. It is an easy recipe to whip up, literally.
The only difference between no churn and regular ice cream is that it melts faster because of the ingredients it contains.
HOW TO STORE:
This Caramel Ice Cream Recipe can be kept frozen covered with plastic wrap or foil in the freezer for up to 2-3 weeks.
Make sure you cover it well and press down on the foil or plastic wrap to touch the ice cream itself so it does not form ice crystals.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- This needs to freeze for at least 6 hours if not overnight.
- You can use the base of this recipe for any flavor combinations that you like.
- Make sure that you press the plastic wrap tightly over the ice cream itself to prevent crystallization and freezer burn.
- It’s best to let it thaw just slightly before serving so it isn’t too hard when it comes out of the freezer and it is easier to scoop out.
- You can double this recipe to make more batches if you want to have more on hand or are serving more guests.
