Equipment

  • 9x5 baking dish metal preferred
  • 2 mixing bowls metal preferred

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/3 cup Ghirardelli Salted Caramel Sauce or plain caramel sauce + 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate ice cream sauce or more to taste
  • 1 cup dark chocolate covered pretzels chopped/crushed pretzels

Instructions

  • Place a medium size mixing bowl and 9x5 bread loaf pan in the freezer for 15 minutes. Note: if you have a metal bowl and pan, use them.
  • Rough chop pretzels using a sharp knife or add pretzels to a zip top bag and pound using a mallet or rolling pin then set aside.
  • In one mixing bowl, blend sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt then set aside.
  • Remove second bowl from the freezer. Add heavy cream then beat using a hand mixer on medium-high to high speed until stiff peaks form (takes about 4 minutes
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the .sweetened condensed milk mixture by hand.
  • Transfer half of the mixture into the loaf pan. Drizzle half of the caramel sauce and crushed pretzels and all of the chocolate sauce. Use the back of a spoon to swirl the toppings into the surface of the ice cream for a marbled look - don't fully mix it.
  • Pour the remaining ice cream over the top then add the remaining caramel sauce and chopped pretzels (chocolate sauce is only on the first layer) and give it another swirl.
  • Cover tightly with plastic wrap then freezer at least 4 hours up to overnight for best results.
