Crunchie Ice Cream

This no-churn Crunchie Ice Cream is at once both sweet and salty and is a truly indulgent treat to keep tucked away in your freezer.  Adapted from Nigella Lawson’s recipe forNo-Churn Salted Caramel Bourbon Ice Cream (At My Table, 2017), this version is family friendly with the omittance of the bourbon and the addition of Crunchie chocolate bar pieces. 
Prep Time10 minutes
Freezing Time8 hours
Total Time8 hours 10 minutes
Course: Dessert

Equipment

  • stand mixer or hand mixer for whipping the cream

Ingredients

  • 300 ml (1 tin) Eagle Brand Dulce de Leche Caramel Sauce (or another dulce de leche of your choice)
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 300 ml whipping cream (double cream, heavy cream)
  • 4 44 g (each) Crunchie chocolate bars (crushed)

Instructions

  • Bash the Crunchie bars with a roiling bin in their wrappers until you get small pieces. I find keeping the bars in their wrappers to be less mess.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, (or a large bowl if using a hand mixer), pour in the dulce de leche and sprinkle in the salt.
  • Pour in the whipping cream and using the whip attachment, whip the cream until it thickens. This will take anywhere from 7 - 10 minutes.
    *If you're using a hand mixer instead, it will take slightly longer.
  • Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold the Crunchie pieces into the cream, being careful not to deflate the cream.
  • Spoon the cream into a metal loaf pan (or another suitable freezer safe container) and cover tightly with plastic wrap or a tight-fitting lid.
  • Place the pan into the freezer and let the ice cream freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight.
