This easy no-churn salted caramel ice cream is the ultimate summer sweet. It’s super creamy and cool and has a jolt of cappuccino hidden in its ingredeints.
This ice cream is a little different than the other five bazillion ice cream recipes I have made. (Only the tiniest bit of number exaggeration.) This one is extra special because it is SO FREAKING EASY TO MAKE.
Sorry for yelling at you. It’s just that I’m so excited about this recipe.
This is truly the easiest No Churn Ice Cream Recipe there is. I mean sure, most recipes can be made without an ice cream maker. But those no churn ice cream recipes involve a tedious process of scrapping the ice cream every hour until it freezes. When it’s summertime and there are oceans to swim in, parties to plan, margaritas to drink, and burgers to flip, who has time to scrape ice cream every hour? Not me!
This is completely different. I’ve used a little trick (otherwise known as whipping the cream) which makes the creamiest ice cream ever with absolutely no effort.
Summertime magic happening right here.
I’ve used Hills Bros Salted Caramel Cappuccino to make this ice cream. Yep, I sure did. It’s actually doing double duty in both the ice cream and the salted caramel syrup.
Honestly, it’s the best hack ever for easy salted caramel. No standing over the stove with a candy thermometer in hand. No fretting over burning the caramel. Just sugar + cappuccino + a little water. Boil and done. Fist bump.
Truth: I like the Hills Bros salted caramel hack better than regular caramel in this recipe. Normally, caramel goes hard and overly chewy when it’s cold. You know, like stuck in your teeth chewy. No one wants that! THIS caramel sauce stays soft and melts in your mouth with the ice cream. It’s the way caramel + ice cream should always be.

- Total Time: 20 minutes
- Yield: Serves 6
- Diet: Omnivore
Description
Creamy, dreamy no-churn ice cream with a secret cappuccino kick. Perfect for a hot summer day!
Ingredients
- 1/3 cups (85 ml) granulated sugar
- 1/3 cups (85 ml) Hills Bros. Salted Caramel Cappuccino
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 cups (473 ml) whipping cream
- 1/2 cups (118 ml) Hills Bros. Salted Caramel Cappuccino
- 1/2 can condensed milk
Instructions
- Line a dish with parchment paper, letting the ends drape over the sides.
- In a small pot over medium heat, bring the sugar, ½ cup of salted caramel cappuccino, and water to a boil. Boil for 5 more minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Pour the whipping cream into a large bowl. Beat with electric beaters until soft peaks form.
- Sprinkle ½ cup of salted caramel cappuccino over the whipped cream and beat on low until incorporated.
- Fold the condensed milk into the whipped cream.
- Drizzle the whipped cream with the salted caramel syrup one heaping tablespoon at a time, folding after each addition. Save some syrup for the top.
- Pour the cream into the prepared dish and drizzle with extra syrup.
- Freeze until firm, about 3-4 hours.
- Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a richer caramel flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
- If you don’t have an electric mixer, you can whisk the cream by hand, but it will take longer and may not be as fluffy.
- Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different brand of cappuccino for this ice cream?
Yes, you can substitute with another brand of cappuccino, but keep in mind that the flavor and sweetness may vary.
What is the purpose of whipping the cream in this no-churn recipe?
Whipping the cream adds air to the mixture, resulting in a creamier texture without the need for constant scraping.
How do I incorporate the salted caramel syrup into the ice cream?
You can swirl the salted caramel syrup into the ice cream mixture before freezing, allowing for a marbled effect and enhancing the flavor.
A ‘can’ is not a measurement unit
Hi Rhia,
The only size of condensed milk can I’ve ever seen is 300ml or roughly 10-ounces. If there are more options where you live, use 1/2 of a 10-ounce can.
What measurement is “?” For salted cappuccino and sugar in the syrup?
Sorry about that! There seems to have been a glitch in the recipe widget. Both should be 1/3 cups. It has been updated! Happy 4th and happy cooking!
