Preparation Steps
1
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then add the brown sugar. Stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved and caramelized.
2
Slowly pour in the coconut milk, stirring constantly. Be careful, as the hot caramel may release steam!
3
Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt, then stir to ensure the flavors meld perfectly.
4
Allow the caramel mixture to cool to room temperature.
5
In another large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
6
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled caramel coconut milk mixture until you achieve a uniformly creamy texture.
7
Pour the mixture into an airtight container and place it in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely frozen.
8
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to make it easier to scoop.
