Salted Dulce de Leche Ice Cream

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Dulce de Leche
  • 1 teaspoon flakey sea salt
  • Ice Cream Base
  • 1/4 cup candied pecans

Instructions

  1. Warm the Dulce de Leche in a microwave for a few seconds, or over a double boiler to soften slightly. Stir in the flakey sea salt (make sure it's flakey!).
  2. Pour the ice cream base into your ice cream maker and turn it on, freezing the ice cream base according to the manufacturer's directions.
  3. Within the last 5 minutes of the freezing process, pour in dollops of the salted Dulce de Leche so that there are ribbons of Dulce going throughout the ice cream. Pour in the candied pecans.
  4. Top with more candied pecans and enjoy!
