Milk Candy d.b.a. Dulce de Leche



Here is what your sweetened condensed milk should look like after a 3 hour simmer. Yes, caramel heaven.......This is a very easy process and produces a high quality product. The only store bought dulce de leche I have purchased is through Williams Sonoma and it costs 18 smackers for the jar. Now I don't know about you, but I can make a whole hell of a lot more on my own for that price. Don't go out and buy any of that smuckers bullsh*t.....that is not dulce de leche. It is flavored and dyed chemicals in a plastic container. It is not thick. Your dulce should be thick and spreadible. I make a killer homemade ice cream w/this stuff. You can also refrigerate it for a few days until you are ready to use it......out of the can of course and you can also freeze it in a ziploc container....I have done so. So saddle up your deepest widest pan and plop in a couple of sweetened condensed milks and simmer away....use some and freeze some. You won't be sorry. Hopefully I will remember to take pics of the cheesecake when I am done.

Dislcaimer: No eyes or diks were hurt during the filming of this blog.

Always remember, if at anytime someone wants one of my recipes just email me. I have 2 small kids and only have time to type the basic blog. I am not going to take the time to post recipes unless someone actually wants it.

I have done this often and used it to make a variety of REALLY EASY-but good desserts including just layering it with other goodies in a parfait. One of my best finds ever!

Ann...I hear ya, I never cooked when I worked outside the home.

Lora~ lol, parfaits remind me of the donkey on shrek when donkey says...I love parfaits, who doesn't love a parfait, everyone loves parfaits, I could use one right now.

Danielle~she is a thang of beauty, aint she? You HAVE to make some. Just wear some safety glasses or have Dave stand in front of you for shielding purposes, in case of exploding cans. You don't want to break a nail!
