Indulge with decadent dulce de leche, the perfect caramel topping to elevate your dessert.
Ingredients:
  • 1 litre good quality vanilla ice cream
  • 107.50 gm caster sugar
  • 100g butter, softened
  • 187.50 ml plain flour
  • 0.63 gm bi-carb soda
  • 32.50 gm cocoa
  • 16.00 gm brown sugar
  • 20g butter
  • 1 x 395g can sweetened condensed milk
  • 63.13 gm cream
  • 4.80 gm sea salt, or more to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat your fan-forced oven to 190C and prepare a baking tray by lining it with baking paper.
  • In an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, beat softened butter and sugar until light, fluffy, and well mixed, scraping down the sides as needed.
  • Sift flour, bi-carb, and cocoa together. Add to butter mixture and mix on low speed until well combined. Remove from mixer and scrape down bowl sides.
  • Shape slightly more than a tablespoon of dough into a smooth ball, then gently flatten into a disc and place on a lined baking tray. Repeat with the rest of the dough, spacing them about 10cms apart. Bake cookies in two batches for 10-12 minutes. Let them cool on the tray briefly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and butter until the butter melts. Stir in sweetened condensed milk, reduce heat to low, and stir continuously with a rubber spatula or whisk until thickened and caramel-colored, about 20 minutes. Use a whisk to eliminate any clumps as the mixture thickens. If the mixture becomes sticky, add a bit of cream to smooth it out. Ensure the caramel is thick enough to slowly drip off a spoon. Mix in salt and let it cool slightly before incorporating into ice cream.
  • After allowing the biscuits to cool, gently crumble or roughly chop them into small pieces.
  • Fold biscuit and caramel into ice cream until combined, making sure not to overmix. Transfer the mixture into a container and freeze until it reaches a firmer consistency. When ready to serve, scoop the ice cream into a waffle or plain cone.
