NINJA CREAMI SALTED CARAMEL ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Place 1 tbsp cream cheese in a medium bowl and microwave for 5-10 seconds. If the cream cheese was in the fridge, these 5-10 seconds in the microwave will help soften it up to mix well with the other ingredients.
• Combine cream cheese with 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1/3 cup granulated sugar. Whisk until the ingredients are mixed together.
• Slowly whisk in 1/2 tsp of salt, 1 cup whole milk, and 3/4 cup heavy cream.
• In a small bowl, microwave 2 tbsp caramel dip for 10-15 seconds. This will allow it to mix in easily with the other ingredients.
• Whisk the 2 tbsp caramel dip into the main ingredient bowl. Ensure it is fully mixed together with no chunks of caramel.
• Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, ensuring it does not go over the max fill line.
• Freeze the pint for 24 hours, making sure it is placed on a flat surface in the freezer.
• After 24 hours, remove the pint from the freezer, and plug in your Ninja Creami machine! Time for the magic. Remove the lid from the pint and grab the Ninja Creami outer bowl. Place the pint securely into the outer bowl and cover with the lid. Once the lid is on, place the outer bowl into the machine, twisting to the right until it locks into place. Press the "Ice Cream" button and (try to) wait patiently for the creamy treat coming your way.
• Once the process is finished, press and hold the button on the left side of the Creami to twist the bowl to the left and remove it from the machine. Twist the lid off of the outer bowl and remove the pint.
• Now your salted caramel ice cream is ready to enjoy!

UNKNOWNCHEF86'S MICROWAVE SOFT VANILLA CARAMELS

Steps:

• Note: If possible, recruit an extra person or two to help cut and wrap the caramels. It can be done on your own with no real problem, but extra hands make the job easier. If you are doing the wrapping and cutting on your own, I would advise doing it in stages: cut all the wax paper squares, then cut the caramel into individual pieces, then wrap them according to directions. Rinse your hands occasionally with hot water, then towel-dry, to remove any residual stickiness.
• Butter an 8x8 inch pan. Line the pan with foil, folding any excess over the outside edges; set aside.
• Mix the butter, brown sugar and corn syrup in a microwave-safe glass bowl or measuring cup. I use my 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup or my 8 cup Pampered Chef measuring/mixing bowl, both of which have a handle.
• Microwave on high for two minutes.
• Stir mixture and return to microwave for two minutes longer.
• Add 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk and stir well.
• Microwave three and a half more minutes.
• Remove from microwave and stir in 1/2 tsp vanilla.
• Pour into prepared pan, scraping any residual caramel from the sides of the bowl. Be careful not to touch the caramel, as getting a sugar burn would put a real damper on your day.
• Set aside and let cool to room temperature.
• While the caramels are cooling, cut the wax paper squares; set aside. Note that the number of servings is dependent on how large/small you cut the caramels.
• When the caramel is cooled, remove foil liner from the pan via the foil "wings" folded over the top of the pan.
• Cut into approximately 1 inch squares with a well-buttered knife or dough scraper, being careful not to cut through the foil.
• Butter your hands well, then place one caramel in the middle of a wax paper square. Roll it into a cylinder, then twist the ends.
• Store the wrapped candies in a cool, dry place.
