Dulce De Leche
Ingredients
- 2 - 14 oz cans sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Pour milk into a 9x13 baking dish and cover tightly with foil. Place into a large roasting pan and add enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish. The water bath prevents the edges from cooking faster (and burning) than the middle.
- Bake at 425°F for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until thick and amber in color.
- Scrape into a food processor and puree until smooth.
- Place into a sealed container and refrigerate for at least an hour to firm up.
- Store in the fridge for up to a week (if it lasts that long!).
