Of all the cakes that could be converted into ice creams, carrot cake might not be the first cake that comes to mind, but this turned out incredibly well. This is a no-churn ice cream and you don’t need an ice cream maker.

Stages of cooking
-
Combine butter, carrots, brown sugar, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until carrots are just getting tender, about 5 minutes. Season with cinnamon and ginger. Cook for 1 more minute. Turn off heat, and let cool.
-
Meanwhile, whisk together cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth. Stir in cooled carrot mixture and transfer to the refrigerator until needed.
-
Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until medium-stiff peaks form. Add cooled carrot-cream cheese mixture and whisk into the whipped cream. Fold in chopped walnuts and pecans with a spatula.
-
Transfer mixture into a chilled airtight container and place a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the mixture. Cover with a lid and freeze until solid, at least 4 hours, but best overnight. Chef John
