Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Dark rum
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar.
Whisk the mixture constantly until the sugar dissolves completely and the liquid begins to heat up, about 3-5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to simmer gently, stirring frequently with a heatproof spatula to prevent it from sticking or burning.
Continue simmering for 60-90 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and turns a deep golden caramel color.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, dark rum, and salt. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated.
Let the Rum Dulce De Leche cool slightly before transferring it into a clean, airtight jar or container.
Allow it to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate. It will thicken further as it cools.
Serve as a topping for desserts, spread on toast, or enjoy by the spoonful!
