Dark Chocolate And Salted Caramel Ice Cream / No Churn

I’ve been making chocolate ice cream for a while now, but putting it toasted peanuts and caramel was a revelation. Because it perfectly captures the essence of my favourite candy bar – Snickers. I think I’ve just made the best chocolate ice cream I’ve ever made. Well, it’s more than just chocolate ice cream. It’s dark and dreamy, buttery and caramel-y. There’s bitter bits of dark chocolate, crushed toasty peanuts, and swirls of golden caramel.

1. 500 g milk
2. 250 g heavy cream
3. 4 tablespoons sugar
