Best 4 Coffee Caramel Swirl Ice Cream Recipes

NO-CHURN COFFEE-CARAMEL CRUNCH ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Whisk the condensed milk, espresso powder, 1 tablespoon heavy cream and the salt in a large bowl until smooth. (The espresso powder may look speckled.)
• Beat the remaining 1 1/2 cups heavy cream in a separate large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold about half of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold in the remaining whipped cream until no white streaks remain.
• Dot the mixture with the dulce de leche and sprinkle with all but a few teaspoons of the toffee bits; drag a rubber spatula through the mixture to lightly swirl.
• Spoon the mixture into a freezer-safe 9-by-5-inch loaf pan or 2-quart baking dish. Dot with more dulce de leche and sprinkle with the remaining toffee bits; drag a rubber spatula through the top to lightly swirl. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm and scoopable, at least 6 hours or overnight.

COFFEE CARAMEL SWIRL ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Make caramel swirl:
• In a 3-quart heavy saucepan boil sugar, corn syrup, water, and a pinch salt over moderate heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Boil mixture, without stirring, gently swirling pan, until a deep golden caramel. Remove pan from heat and carefully pour cream and vanilla down side of pan (mixture will vigorously steam and caramel will harden). Simmer mixture, stirring, until caramel is dissolved. Remove pan from heat and cool caramel. Caramel swirl may be made 1 week ahead and chilled, covered. Bring caramel swirl to room temperature before using. (If caramel swirl is too stiff to pour, heat slightly.)
• Make custard:
• In a dry 5-quart heavy kettle cook sugar over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a fork (to help sugar melt evenly), until melted and pale golden. Cook caramel, without stirring, gently swirling kettle, until deep golden. Remove kettle from heat and carefully pour cream and milk down side of kettle (mixture will vigorously steam and caramel will harden). Simmer mixture, stirring, until caramel is dissolved.
• In a large bowl lightly beat eggs. Add hot cream mixture in a slow stream, whisking, and pour into kettle. Cook custard over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until a thermometer registers 170°F. (Do not let boil.) Whisk in espresso powder and vanilla until espresso powder is dissolved. Pour custard through a fine sieve into another large bowl and cool. Chill custard, its surface covered with wax paper, until cold, at least 3 hours, and up to 2 days.
• Freeze custard in an ice-cream maker, in 2 batches if necessary. Transfer one third ice cream to a 2-quart airtight container and drizzle one third caramel swirl over it. Repeat layering with remaining ice cream and caramel swirl. Freeze ice cream until hard, at least 8 hours, and up to 1 week.

VANILLA ICE CREAM WITH SALTED CARAMEL SWIRL

Steps:

• Vanilla Ice Cream with Salted Caramel Swirl:.
• In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, evaporated milk and salt. With a stand mixer, beat until stiff peaks form gradually increasing speed to high, as mixture thickens. Slowly drizzle in sweetened condensed milk starting mixer speed at low and gradually increasing it to high. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla extract. Beat until it is well blended, maintaining stiff peaks. Spread one-third of the ice cream onto the bottom of a freezer-safe container. Spread half of the salted caramel swirl over ice cream. Spread one-third of the ice cream over the salted caramel swirl. Spread half of the salted caramel swirl over ice cream. Spread remaining one-third ice cream over the salted caramel swirl. With a knife, gently swirl the ice cream with the salted caramel swirl back and forth about two times. Cover tightly. Freeze until firm and completely solid, about 8-10 hours.
• Salted Caramel Swirl:.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, melt and stir the butter, brown sugar, light corn syrup, evaporated milk and salt. Bring to a boil. Cook/boil for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract. Cool completely.
