How to Make Turtle Ice Cream Sauce
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine the unwrapped caramels, butter, evaporated milk, heavy cream, semi-sweet chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the caramels are completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy. This will take approximately 10-15 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low.
- Using an electric hand mixer on medium speed, beat in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Continue beating on medium speed for 2 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Increase the mixer speed to high and beat for another minute for a smoother consistency.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
- Pour the cooled Turtle Ice Cream Sauce into airtight glass or plastic food storage containers.
- Refrigerate until ready to use. The sauce will thicken further as it chills.
