Directions
- 1Put sugar and whole milk in a saucepan.
- 2Mix together with a spatula until the sugar is dissolved.
- 3Put on gentle low heat and let it come to a gentle simmer.
- 4Simmer for 35 to 45 minutes until it dissolves down into condensed milk, stirring pretty often so it doesn't scorch to the bottom.
- 5Once your milk has simmered down, it should be completely smooth.
- 6Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a half-pint jar, which should yield about one cup.
- 7To store, put a lid on the jar and turn it upside down to let it cool off; it should seal within 24 hours.
- 8Store in the fridge for up to one week before use.
