Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz (1 can) Sweetened condensed milk
- 6 cups Water
Instructions
Remove the label from the can of sweetened condensed milk and ensure it is completely sealed with no dents or damage.
Place the can of sweetened condensed milk on its side in the bottom of a crock pot.
Pour enough water into the crock pot to fully submerge the can, ensuring there is at least 1 inch of water above the top of the can.
Set the crock pot to 'low' and cook for 8 hours. Do not let the water level drop below the top of the can; check periodically and add more hot water if needed.
After 8 hours, carefully turn off the crock pot and let the water cool to room temperature before handling the can. This may take an additional 1–2 hours for safety.
Once the can is cool, open it with a can opener and stir the dulce de leche until smooth and creamy.
Serve as a topping for desserts, a dip for fruits, or enjoy it by the spoonful. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
