Prepare the base

  1. Add 20 g of the caramel sauce, sugar, vanilla extract and salt to a mixing bowl. Gradually whisk in the milk until completely smooth.

  2. Whisk in the heavy cream.

Freeze and spin

  1. Pour the mixture into a Ninja CREAMi pint, without exceeding the MAX FILL line.

  2. Close with the storage lid and freeze flat for 24 hours.

  3. Once fully frozen, run the ICE CREAM program.

  4. If the texture is powdery or crumbly after the first cycle, run RE-SPIN.

Prepare the mix-ins

  1. Finely chop the milk chocolate into pieces no larger than 5 mm. Break 20 g of the shortbread into pieces about 5 mm wide. Keep the chocolate chilled and the biscuit in an airtight container at room temperature.

  2. Make a hole about 4 cm wide down the center of the ice cream, add the chopped milk chocolate and prepared shortbread and run the MIX-IN program.

  3. Drizzle over the remaining 30 g of caramel sauce and crumble in the remaining 10 g of shortbread. Fold through two or three times by hand, leaving visible caramel ribbons, and serve immediately.

Serve

Serve immediately, while the ice cream is still nice and creamy.

Storing leftovers

Flatten any remaining ice cream to level the surface before returning the pint to the freezer. This will make the next spin easier and reduce unnecessary strain on the machine. Learn more about after-serving habits.

Tips

  • Use a thick caramel sauce at room temperature so it folds easily into the ice cream without making it runny.
  • Keep the milk chocolate pieces small because large pieces become hard when frozen.
  • Keep the shortbread airtight until the last moment and serve immediately after folding it in for the clearest crunch.
