MILKSHAKE:
- 3 cups salted caramel flavored dairy-free ice cream
- 1 cup Almond milk (You can use your favorite plant-based milk)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped semi-sweet vegan chocolate
- Pinch of finely-ground sea salt
HOMEMADE VEGAN CARAMEL SAUCE:
- 1 cup organic brown sugar
- 6 Tbsps vegan butter
- ½ cup full-fat coconut milk (The can version)
- Pinch of finely-ground sea salt
TOPPINGS:
- Coconut whipped cream, homemade or store-bought (See Notes!)
HOMEMADE VEGAN CARAMEL SAUCE:
Heat the brown sugar in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and stir constantly using a rubber spatula until clumps are formed. Add butter and continue to stir until everything has melted and become a dark 'amber-like' color. Continue to stir consistently until fully melted and bubbly, about 2-3 minutes.
Now, slowly whisk in the coconut milk and continue stirring until well incorporated and sauce has fully thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before using. Set aside.
MILKSHAKE:
Add the dairy-free ice cream, milk, and vanilla to a high-powered blender and blend on medium-high speed, until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
Once milkshake consistency is met, pour milkshake into tall glass(es), and top each milkshake with coconut whipped cream, caramel sauce, and chopped vegan chocolate.
Add a straw and sip away and enjoy!
- HOMEMADE COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM: In the bowl of an electric mixer on medium-high speed, whip the full-fat coconut milk (3-4 cups), using the whisk attachment for 4-5 minutes, until fluffy peaks begin to form. **NOTE: When it begins to thicken after the first 2-3 minutes, gradually add in 1 tablespoon vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt.** Once fully fluffy, remove from mixer bowl and continue recipe.
- STORAGE (CARAMEL SAUCE): Leftover caramel sauce can be stored in a tightly sealed mason jar for up to two weeks. When ready to use, simply reheat sauce in the microwave at 15 second intervals until softened and at room temp.
