Homemade condensed milk

Did you know that you can easily make your own sweetened condensed milk at home? It’s not only simple but also a great addition to your kitchen skills. Here’s how:

Ingredients:

• 3 tsp of butter
• 1 cup of instant powdered milk
• 2/3 cup of sugar
• 1/3 cup boiling water

Directions:

1. Start by melting 3 tsp of butter in a saucepan over low heat.
2. Once the butter is melted, add 1 cup of instant powdered milk, 2/3 cup of sugar, and 1/3 cup of boiling water.
3. Mix the ingredients together and continue to cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
4. Once your homemade sweetened condensed milk has thickened to the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and let it cool.
5. Transfer it to an airtight jar and store it in the refrigerator. It can be used in recipes that call for a can of sweetened condensed milk.

Pro Tip: You can also freeze your homemade sweetened condensed milk in an airtight container for a few months and use it later in your favorite desserts or beverages. Enjoy the difference it makes in your recipes!
