Dulce de Leche Filling

Ooey, gooey, yummy caramel-like Dulce de Leche. Couldn't be easier!

INGREDIENTS:
1 can sweetened condensed milk

DIRECTIONS:
Remove label from the can. Place UNOPENED can in a deep pot of water, making sure the water is at least 3-4 inches over the top of the can. Bring water to a boil and boil steadily for 3 hours. DO NOT let the water level get below the can. It is important to keep the water level above the can, or the can could explode. It is a good idea to set a timer as a reminder to check the level and add water every 15 minutes.

After 3 hours, turn off heat and allow water to cool. Remove can and refrigerate until cold before opening can. Store in refrigerator.

Serve as fruit dip, drizzled over ice-cream, use as icing or filling, etc.

YIELD:
Makes 1 3/4 cups
