Ingredients
- 1 can condensed milk most of the condensed milk cans are of 400 gms
Instructions
- Remove any paper labels from the condensed milk can if any. Then in a large sauce pan, place the condensed milk can horizontally and fill up water upto two inches above the can.
- Now turn the heat on and once the water boils, let it simmer for two and half hours to three hours.
- If at any point, the water level reduces, then add more boiling water.
- Once done, remove the can and let it cool down before opening the can.
- You will get a thick dulce de leche. If you want hardened and more dark dulce de leche, then cook the can for another extra hour.
- Open the can only when cooled down. If the dulce de leche has hardened, just loosen it over a double boiler or a microwave in medium power.
- You can store the dulce de leche in the refrigerator for a month and use it as you like.
