Butterscotch Sauce
- In small saucepan, combine brown sugar and water.
- Bring to boil over medium heat.

Ice Cream Base
- Whisk milk and sugar together in large bowl until sugar is completely dissolved (about 2 minutes).
- Stir in cream soda and heavy cream.
- Cover with foil and place in refrigerator to cool (about 2-4 hours).
Ice Cream
- Thoroughly mix butterscotch sauce into ice cream base using a wire whisk.
- Get ice cream maker drum out of freezer (freeze at least 24 hours before churning for best results). Put in mixer piece and pour in ice cream mixture.
- Cover and churn for 15-20 minutes. Ice cream will be the consistency of soft serve when done.
- Transfer to freezer-safe airtight container and freeze several hours to allow ice cream to firm up to a perfect consistency.
- Serve in your favorite bowl, in a cone, or any way you want. Store remaining ice cream in the freezer for up to two weeks.
Notes
- Using dark brown sugar in the sauce is important. The flavor is much better.
- Follow your ice cream maker's directions for proper use.
