Dulce De Leche Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Condensed Milk

   Open the can of sweetened condensed milk and pour it into a heavy-bottomed saucepan.

2. 2

   Heat the Milk

   Place the saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir the milk continuously to prevent it from burning at the bottom.

3. 3

   Cook Until Thickened

   Continue to cook and stir for about 30 to 40 minutes. The mixture will begin to thicken and turn a golden caramel color.

4. 4

   Add Flavorings

   Once the desired color and thickness are achieved, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

5. 5

   Cool and Store

   Allow the dulce de leche to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to a clean jar. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
