Ingredients
- 1 Litre Milk
- 300g Sugar
- 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Directions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, mix the milk, sugar, and baking soda. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Thicken: Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture becomes thick and caramel-colored, about 1-2 hours.
- Flavor: Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Cool: Let the dulce de leche cool, then transfer to a jar. It will thicken further as it cools.
- Pro Tips:
- Stir continuously and keep the heat low to prevent the milk from burning and sticking to the bottom of the pan. A drop of vanilla extract added at the end of cooking enhances the flavor.
