Dulce de Leche
Dulce de Leche, an Argentinian specialty, is a milk-based caramel. It can be eaten alone with a spoon, drizzled over ice cream, spread on toast in the morning, or even sandwiched between cookies!
Servings 2 cups
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 cups whole milk
- 1 ¼ cups sugar
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Stir together milk, sugar, and baking soda in a larger pot than you think is necessary.
- Once the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer on the stove for about 1.75 hours. Make sure to stir so that it does not burn, especially as you near the end.
- After the dulce de leche is smooth, thick, and creamy, remove from heat.
- Stir in the vanilla.
- Cool before enjoying!
