What is it made out of?
This easy Dulce de Leche ice cream recipe is made with heavy cream, vanilla beans, sweetened condensed milk, and dulce de leche, and a tiny pinch of sea salt.
I have seen multiple no churn ice cream recipes online but most of them seemed too sweet for my likings… So I of course took matters into my own hands and made something a little less sweet (but still delicious!!)
By using less than the recommended amount of dulce de leche I was able to control the sweetness of this recipe perfectly. On the other hand, the dulce de leche swirls definitely add the necessary sweetness to this no-churn homemade ice cream.
How about this Dulce de leche you talk about?
I’m sure you remember that I already posted an awesome recipe using dulce de leche, Dulce de Leche Stuffed Snickerdoodle Cookie. This was a very popular recipe on the blog at the moment so definitely check it out if you love cookies as much as I do!

No churn vanilla bean dulce de leche icecream
Equipment
- Kitchen aid / stand mixer
- Stand mixer bowl and whisk, chilled
- 9X5X3-inch metal loaf pan, chilled
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream Really cold
- ½ cup sweet condensed milk
- 1 thick vanilla bean
- 1 pinch salt
- ¼ cup Dulce de Leche
Instructions
- First, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, scraped vanilla beans, and salt; then set aside.
- In your chilled mixing bowl, whip the cream on medium-high until firm peaks form, this will take about 3 - 4 minutes.
- Fold about a cup of the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk vanilla mixture with a spatula until combines then fold that mixture back into the whipped cream until blended.
- Pour half of that mixture into the chilled metal loaf pan, then add some of the dulce de leche in there. Then cover with the rest of the whipped cream mixture, and add some more dulce de leche on top.
- Using a wooden or metal skewer, swirl the dulce de leche in the ice cream to make sure it is evenly distributed.
- Cover the metal loaf with saran wrap and freeze for 4 to 5 hours. This will ensure that it is solid and scoopable! When ready to serve this ice cream top with some extra dulce de leche drizzles.
Notes
- Swirling the dulce de leche around give this ice cream such a cute look!
When I made this recipe I wanted to add a little extra dulce de leche caramel on top, because… Well who doesn’t love extra caramel on top of their ice cream! But it also does look beautiful and gives that perfect contrast between the white vanilla bean ice cream and golden dulce de leche!
