DULCE THE LECHE (Milk Jam)

This is the easiest way to make Dulce de Leche...the taste is pretty authentic and the work is almost completely eliminated!

1 can sweetened condensed milk
large pot with metal rack

Place the can inside the pot on top of the rack. Add water to completely cover can, plus 1-2 more inches. Simmer for 4 hours, making sure the can is always completely covered with water...if not...there is an explosion ! !

Leave the can to cool several hours and only then open it and serve.

Serve the golden-brown confection over flan, as a filling for crepes, cakes or just plain. For breakfast you can spread it on croissants, rolls or toast!
