Enjoy the rich, creamy goodness of salted caramel ice cream that you make yourself with this recipe. It's a great treat for any event because the sweet and salty tastes go well together.

Ingredients: 2 cups heavy cream. 1 cup whole milk. 3/4 cup granulated sugar. 1/4 cup water. 1 teaspoon sea salt. 5 large egg yolks. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Instructions: In a saucepan, combine heavy cream and milk. Heat over medium heat until just simmering, then remove from heat. In another saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium-high heat. Cook, without stirring, until the mixture turns a deep amber color, about 6-8 minutes. Slowly whisk the hot cream mixture into the caramelized sugar. Be careful as it may bubble up. Add salt to the mixture and return it to low heat, stirring until the caramel is fully dissolved. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually pour in some of the warm caramel mixture while whisking continuously. Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining caramel mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Stir in vanilla extract. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. Once chilled, churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the churned ice cream to a container and freeze until firm, usually about 4 hours or overnight.
