What’s in the Ice Cream?
This No Churn Salted Caramel S’mores Ice Cream has all the traditional makings of a S’mores but taken up a notch!
- Graham Cracker Ice Cream: The graham crackers are soaked in the heavy cream for about 30 minutes. Then strained through a fine mesh strainer.
- Caramel: For this ice cream I chose to use a pre-made caramel because I was being lazy AF. Also because I wanted to make this Ice Cream quick and simple to make.
- Marshmallow Fluff: Again we are going for quick and easy so this pre-made Marshamllow Fluff does the trick.
- Chocolate: I used the Ghirardelli Sea Salt squares in this ice cream and simply broke them up into smaller pieces. One bag is plenty for the ice cream.
- Graham Crackers: Crunchy graham crackers complete this EPIC ice cream. Graham crackers are broken into bite size pieces to ensure you get a bite of everything each time.
How do I make this No Churn Salted Caramel S’mores?
Start out by making the graham cracker ice cream base by soaking 3-4 graham crackers in the heavy cream. Soak for about 20-25 minutes. Strain the heavy cream, don’t worry if some of the cracker crumbs are still in the heavy cream.
Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks, usually this takes about 2-4 minutes on medium speed.
In a separate bowl, pour in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Once the whipped cream is ready, gently fold it into the sweetened condensed milk.
Once fully combined, pour half of the ice cream into a 9 inch square baking dish. Dollop caramel and marshmallow fluff on the first layer. Then add some crushed candy pieces and graham crackers. Repeat with the top layer.
Place the No Churn Salted Caramel S’mores ice cream in the freezer for 4-6 hours but preferably overnight.
Tips
- To help the make the marshmallow fluff easier to use, microwave it for about 10 seconds or so. This will make it easier to swirl into the ice cream.
- Break the chocolate pieces up while still in the wrapper then open. Trust me if you try to do it in your hands, you will a big chocolaty, caramely mess.
