Ingredients

  • 235 g heavy cream 1 cup
  • 185 g whole milk ¾ cup
  • 40 g dark brown sugar 3 tbsp packed
  • 30 g cream cheese 2 tbsp softened
  • 14 g bourbon 1 tbsp
  • 2 g vanilla extract ½ tsp
  • 1.5 g fine salt ¼ tsp
  • 40 g caramel sauce 2 tbsp mix-in
  • 2 tbsp chopped toasted pecans

Instructions

  • Whisk cream cheese and brown sugar until smooth.
  • Add cream, milk, salt, bourbon, and vanilla. Whisk until uniform.
  • Pour into pint container. Do not exceed MAX FILL. Freeze flat 24 hours.
  • Spin on ICE CREAM. Re-spin if crumbly.
  • Create center well. Add caramel and pecans. Run MIX-IN cycle.
  • Serve immediately or refreeze 1–2 hours.

Notes

Cream cheese is the stabilizer — do not skip or substitute with yogurt. Keep bourbon at or below 2 tbsp; higher alcohol content can prevent the base from freezing solid and stall the Creami. Pecans and caramel sauce are added as mix-ins after the initial spin, not incorporated into the base.
