Sweetened Condensed Milk tastes so good

[luvmychicknkids]

Alright, I just boiled two cans of this.

This is my first time. Now, how long should I wait to open it? I want to now but suppose I can't.

Also, is it alright to leave the other can unopened for awhile....like to use another day?

mmm

See no reason why you can't store the caramelized version just as long as the uncaramelized version.

Need to buy more cans to make caramel!!!

I kinda figured you should be able to, but then I almost imagined it starting to crystallize or something.

I know I am really eager to taste this!!! The apples are waiting.

I have a question. The website for a brand of SCM says to boil the can for 3 to 4 hours. I have a friend that just told me her dad made it for her a long time ago and he boiled it for hours....so is 1.5 hours really long enough?

I opened one of my cans and it wasn't done. It was a blond color....not a nice, rich, caramel. So, the other can is back in the boiling water.

Same here. I think next time I'll let it go another hour. It was very tasty though!! Something I will certainly do again.

I used to make cakes and I make this one cake which everyone, and I mean everyone goes crazy for it.

I only make it on special occasions because it is a little involved but it has the sweetened condensed milk. It is called a 3 milk cake. So good and moist because I poke holes in the cake when it is done and pour the condensed milk all over it and let it set overnight in the refrigerator.

3 milk cake sounds YUMMY! I'm envisioning that evil coffee cup cake recipe from a different thread with SCM oozing out of the top of it now.
