Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 14oz can of dulce de leche
  • 50 grams of digestive biscuits *see note below for examples

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Open the can of dulce de leche. Scoop out 4 tablespoons into a bowl and set aside to use to make swirls later.
  2. Whip the cream until stiff peaks form. (This will take some time, depending on how quickly you're whipping the cream.) You want to work with cold cream and cold bowl to ensure maximum creaminess.
  3. Add in the rest of the can of dulce de leche. Whip until all is combined and frothy.
  4. Pour half of the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container.
  5. Plop 2 reserved tablespoons of dulce de leche. Swirl using the back of a spoon in a figure eight movement.
  6. Sprinkle on some of the crushed digestive biscuits on top.
  7. Pour the rest of the ice cream mixture on top. Add the remaining dulce de leche, and swirl into the ice cream. Sprinkle the rest of the crushed digestive biscuits on top.
  8. Wrap with plastic film and freeze at least 4 hours.
Bom Apetite!

Notes

  • Digestive biscuits, such as:

    Biscoito de maizena — this one is my favorite! They are a Brazilian brand that we’ve been using most of our lives, and you can get ’em at Brazilian supermarkets or on Amazon. Galletas Maria — this brand can be found in regular grocery stores in the US. If you can’t find them, Amazon has them them, as well. Goya Maria cookies — this brand is also easy to find in grocery stores, as well as Target, Walmart, and sometimes even at the Dollar Tree! Graham crackers — while this is my least favorite option, they certainly work in a pinch!
