In just 15 minutes, you can whip up this treat, blending velvety caramel-infused ice cream with buttery, caramel-coated popcorn for a texture that’s pure magic.
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Total Time 15 minutes mins
- 2 cups caramel corn 100g/ 3 ½ oz
- 2 cups cold whipping cream 16oz/450 ml (all purpose cream or heavy cream)
- ¼ cup cold condensed milk 3 ½ oz/ 100g
- A handful crushed popcorn for mixing in
Pour the cream into a bowl and stir in the caramel corn. Let it sit and soak for 30 minutes. This will infuse the cream with the flavors of the popcorn.
Pass the cream through a sieve. Feel free to push out any excess cream from the corn too. It’s all flavors.
Whip the cold cream on medium/ high in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer) until soft peaks form.
Turn off the machine and pour the condensed milk into the whipped cream.
Turn the speed back up high again and whisk until the mixture is thick and stiff peaks.
Now you have your ice cream base you can add in your desired flavors once it is nice and thick.
Stir in the crushed caramel corn for even more caramel corn flavor and texture.
Place in a large resealable container and freeze at least 4 hours or overnight before eating. Keep for up to 6 weeks.
