Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cream, milk, and butter will give your caramel ice cream topping the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the caramel: The caramel should be cooked until it reaches a medium amber color. If you overcook it, it will become bitter.
  • Let the caramel cool slightly before adding it to the ice cream: This will help prevent the ice cream from melting.
  • Serve the caramel ice cream topping immediately: Caramel ice cream topping is best served warm, so don't let it sit out for too long before serving.
