Once I realized that I was just using the ice cream as a vehicle for the caramel, I started just eating straight from the pot. :)<br />Tips:<br />1. I always corn starch with these recipes since I haven't been able to find arrowroot, and my local grocery store is Vietnamese. The thing about corn starch is that it will clump is you mix it with hot stuff, so wait until your ice cream base/sauce base cools to add it in. <br />2. I stuck the caramel sauce base in the freezer so it would cool to prep it for the arrowroot. When I took it out about 10 minutes later it was the perfect consistency and I skipped the corn starch!<br />So, in sum:<br />1. Mix corn starch with cold stuff only<br />2. Skip arrowroot/corn starch, put the sauce in the freezer for 10 minutes. <br />3. I use cheap-o "vegetable spread" from Shop-Rite, it's totally vegan and spreads/melts really well. <br /><br />Enjoy everyone! <3KDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01864316811148882168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29173043.post-70887131084076198352010-03-03T10:01:12.804-08:002010-03-03T10:01:12.804-08:00I just made this!

It's dark and yummy. I am a dope and did not look at your cooking instructions, just the ingredients. So I melted the earth balance and the sugar, combined the 'milk' and cornstarch and added it when the sugar had melted. Then simmered it for more than 15 mins. It probably could have simmered longer but I took it off. I think it helped thicken it. Wonder how much thicker it could have gotten?Jessica!http://bornlippy.etsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29173043.post-2729980228385490252010-01-02T04:42:50.060-08:002010-01-02T04:42:50.060-08:00Just made this recipe and the arrowroot slurry clu...Just made this recipe and the arrowroot slurry clumped up when I added it to the sauce.

It has whey (milk product) & Vitamin D3, which comes from sheep, I believe. I got the Earth Balance as suggested.

Caramel sounds like a strange addition now that I think of it, but who doesn't love Caramel, I mean especially this one. It's buttery and sugary...yum. Well anyways it tastes yummy but it is so thin. But as always in my life I did not follow the directions completely. I used hemp milk instead of soy and I also used tapioca starch instead of arrowroot. So I would suggest using less nut milk? then maybe it will be thick enough? Right now I have a caramel soup, how silly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29173043.post-84393552918893657052009-01-12T20:24:00.000-08:002009-01-12T20:24:00.000-08:00We made this today and it was awesome!

Then we added some pecans and had Turtle Ice Cream! It was great. The caramel did make the ice cream consistency runnier though so next time we should add it at the last possible second.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29173043.post-58798612404420845282008-11-04T20:44:00.000-08:002008-11-04T20:44:00.000-08:00I found your recipe for this on the PPK and am goi...I found your recipe for this on the PPK and am going to use it (eventually) to create a muffin that I have been requested to make on my blog. <BR/><BR/>I will give credit where and when I use it, but I just wanted to let you know I am doing it, and hope it is OK. <BR/><BR/>I'm also glad I didn't have to think of it myself!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13094454979605796385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29173043.post-60493886051754054132008-08-23T08:27:00.000-07:002008-08-23T08:27:00.000-07:00I just made this, and its the best stuff ever!!

Did not thicken much at all but tasted wonderful. Now, the leftovers in the fridge thickened wonderfully-as long as you don't heat it. I even drizzled some in an ice cream I made-Vanilla Almond Chocolate Chip w/Caramel. Got some arrowroot finally and I'm gonna have to use Earth Balance-the transfat content in Fleischmann's is scary.Habanerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15891536895469508054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29173043.post-14600087186967458782007-12-02T19:20:00.000-08:002007-12-02T19:20:00.000-08:00I just tried this tonight to top some pumpkin cake...I just tried this tonight to top some pumpkin cake I made.

So happy, in fact, that I created a Blogger profile just to tell you that. <BR/><BR/>I'm vegan, too, and I just got an ice cream maker, and I can tell by the look of your recipes that they're right in line with my standards on health vs. taste. (I'm generally a healthy eater, but I feel strongly that dessert should be dessert.) I bought Vice Cream, but since our son can't eat nuts for another year because of the allergy history in our family, it did me precisely no good.<BR/><BR/>The caramel sauce came out great, btw. So, thanks - I'll definitely be back regularly!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01661555700121142335noreply@blogger.com
