For an even richer coffee flavor, use espresso powder instead of instant coffee granules. High-quality caramel sauce makes a noticeable difference in the final product. Look for a sauce made with real butter and vanilla. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can try the 'no-churn' method: Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 30 minutes. Then, whisk vigorously to break up any ice crystals. Repeat every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours, or until the ice cream is frozen but still scoopable. Adjust the amount of caramel sauce to your preference. Some people prefer a more subtle caramel flavor, while others like a generous swirl. For a boozy twist, add a tablespoon or two of coffee liqueur or bourbon to the mixture before churning.
