Ingredients

400 g tin of Nestlé MILKMAID® condensed milk

2

Prepare Dulce De Leche

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Step 2

Remove the label (if any) from your can of Nestlé MILKMAID® condensed milk.
Step 3

Gently lower the Nestlé MILKMAID® condensed milk can into the water using a slotted spoon.
Step 4

Make sure it's on its side so it can roll around in the water, dispersing any water pressure.
Step 5

Simmer for 1.3 to 1.5 hours for a runnier texture for drizzling or baking. Two hours gives you a firmer custard-like texture for spreading or eating on its own.
Step 6

Keep adding water to the pot as water evaporates.
Step 7

Using a slotted spoon, gently and carefully remove the can from the water. Do not open the can while it is hot.
Step 8

Cool the can before opening.

Serving Suggestions:

Store in an air-tight container for future use.
