Why do I need to swirl the peanut butter after each addition?

Since the ice cream mixture is cold, it will harden the peanut butter if not swirled after each addition. I’ve tried swirling the peanut butter after filling up the cartons in alternating layers of the ice cream mixture and peanut butter. It had hardened too much, stuck to the chopstick when pulling the chopstick back out, and was not able to be swirled. After freezing, the ice cream had peanut butter chunks instead of swirls. The best way to get the swirls evenly distributed in the ice cream is to swirl the peanut butter immediately after each addition.

Does Baileys Salted Caramel need to be refrigerated?

Refrigeration is not necessary. It should be stored between 0° to 25°C / 32° to 77°F, and make sure that the bottle is tightly sealed. However if you’d like to enjoy it chilled and not just use it to make this ice cream, you can certainly store it in the fridge!

Only a very small amount. The nutritional information label on the official Baileys website for the product indicates it has trace amounts, which means there’s less than 0 grams per one ounce shot.

Ingredients

Scale

350 grams / 12.35 ounce can Sweetened Condensed Milk (I used Nestlē Eagle brand)
1 TSP Pure Vanilla Extract

Instructions

Combine sweetened condensed milk with flavorings: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and Baileys Salted Caramel Irish Cream Liqueur until combined well.
Make the whipped cream: Pour the heavy whipping cream into another large mixing bowl. Using an electric hand mixer (or stand mixer with the whisk attachment), beat on medium-high speed. Once the cream starts to thicken, increase the speed and continue beating until stiff peaks form – about 4-12 minutes.
Fold: Add the whipped cream to the bowl with the sweetened condensed milk and flavorings mixture. Fold gently until fully combined and integrated. The mixture should be light and creamy.
Melt the peanut butter: Add the peanut butter to a microwave safe measuring cup. Melt in the microwave on medium power for 15-30 seconds, stirring once in between, until the peanut butter has melted and is pouring consistency.
Freeze: Add about ¼ cup of the salted caramel ice cream mixture to an ice cream paper carton. Then add a tablespoon of the melted peanut butter on top and use a chopstick or skewer to create swirls. Repeat until the carton is full. Place a small sheet of nonstick cooking paper (parchment paper) on top, making sure the paper is touching the ice cream. Cover with the container with its lid. Repeat with the remaining ice cream mixture and peanut butter and fill the remaining paper ice cream cartons. (Note: If using another type of sealable freezer safe container such as reusable insulated ice cream tubs or a bread loaf pan, fill with ¼ of the ice cream mixture and top with ¼ of the peanut butter. Swirl the peanut butter with a chopstick, then repeat thrice in alternating layers until all of the ice cream mixture and peanut butter is in the container. Cover with a sheet of nonstick cooking paper or cling wrap and press out any air bubbles.) Freeze for 4-6 hours or until solid.
Serve: Let the ice cream sit on the counter at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Then scoop, serve, and enjoy!

How long will it keep? If stored properly, the ice cream will last in the freezer for 3-4 weeks in a freezer safe sealed airtight container. If freezing in a loaf pan for more than a few days, transfer the ice cream to a freezer-friendly sealed airtight container so that the risk of ice crystals forming is reduced and it stays fresh longer.
