Preparation Steps
1
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar, stirring constantly, until you get a dark amber caramel.
2
Add the butter and stir until completely dissolved in the caramel.
3
Pour in the milk and heavy cream, then stir continuously to dissolve the caramel in the liquid. Heat through, but do not boil.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until light and fluffy. Temper the yolks by slowly drizzling in a small amount of the warm caramel mixture, whisking constantly. Then, pour the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan.
5
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. This will take approximately 5-7 minutes.
6
Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Let it cool completely.
7
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn the ice cream according to the manufacturer's instructions.
8
When the ice cream is almost fully churned, add the crushed caramel pieces to give the ice cream a crispy texture.
9
Transfer the finished ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 3 hours to reach the desired consistency.
10
Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to make it easier to scoop.
