Take a large scoop of the whipped cream and slowly stir into the sweetened condensed milk to lighten it up. (image #3) Add remaining whipped cream stirring slowly. Consistency will be smooth with a few bumps. Don't mix too long or you will remove the air from the mixture. Spread almost half of the mixture into a loaf pan, top with half of the caramel syrup, (image #4) add almost all of the rest of the mixture, reserving a small about, spread over caramel, top with remaining caramel, then the remaining cream mixture. Take a butter knife and "cut" through the mixture both directions to swirl the caramel throughout.

VANILLA ICE CREAM WITH SALTED CARAMEL SWIRL

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, evaporated milk and salt. With a stand mixer, beat until stiff peaks form gradually increasing speed to high, as mixture thickens. Slowly drizzle in sweetened condensed milk starting mixer speed at low and gradually increasing it to high. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla extract. Beat until it is well blended, maintaining stiff peaks. Spread one-third of the ice cream onto the bottom of a freezer-safe container. Spread half of the salted caramel swirl over ice cream. Spread one-third of the ice cream over the salted caramel swirl. Spread half of the salted caramel swirl over ice cream. Spread remaining one-third ice cream over the salted caramel swirl. With a knife, gently swirl the ice cream with the salted caramel swirl back and forth about two times. Cover tightly. Freeze until firm and completely solid, about 8-10 hours.
