A Sweet Recipe

1 can sweet condensed milk
Water
Crock pot

Put unopened can of sweet condensed milk in the crockpot, without the label.

Fill your crock pot with enough water so the can is completely covered.

Put the lid on crock pot.

Cook on low for 7 or so hours. Mine cooked for 10 and it's perfectly fine.

Viola! Caramel. (aka dulce de leche) And it's delicious.


*I cooked two cans and they did leave a rust spot on the bottom of my crock pot. It will come off with soap and water. You can also use whitening toothpaste to get that stain off.  This trick works on porcelain bathroom sinks and tubs too. You are welcome.

*Although I have seen this recipe several times on Pinterest, it was Kate who finally got me to try it. Rather, she did it so I wanted to do it too. However, fear not. I would not jump off a bridge just because she did. I wouldn't even walk on that bridge to the center to watch her jump. Me scared.

The End.

    I was going to send you an invite to the bridge jumping party on the 26 - your place. :)

    I had a roommate in college from Chile. He would make this from time to time. It was delicious. But he also told me a story about a time that the can exploded when his mom was making it at his home. Apparently caramel (aka dulce de leche) makes a very difficult mess to clean up.
