Homemade Sweetened Condensed Milk

Directions

1. Combine milk and sugar in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir until sugar dissolves.
2. Continue cooking gently, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens to coat the back of a spoon (about 25–30 minutes).
3. If you smell burning, reduce the heat or start over if it scorches.
4. Remove from heat and let cool.
5. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow it to thicken further.

Notes
