Instructions

  1. Add milk, cream, and sugar to a small saucepan and heat over medium. Whisk to combine and dissolve sugar. Bring to a boil.
  2. Turn heat down slightly so that mixture is at a gentle boil / strong simmer. Cook to reduce, checking on it and whisking it often. If it starts to boil over, give it a whisk, but don't turn down the heat too much. Keep the heat at medium/medium low, but closer to medium. You need the heat to reduce it.
  3. Once the mixture is thick and creamy, add vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
  4. Pour into a small mason jar or bowl and let cool before using.

Notes

  • Yield
  • Yield
  • Approximately 7 oz if left to reduce for about 40-45 minutes.  This is about 1/2 of a large Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk. 
  • Doubling Batch 
  • Doubling Batch 
  • If doubling to get a full 14 oz, I would suggest making two batches, instead of doubling in one pan. This will keep the total cook time about an hour. 
  • Storing
  • Storing
  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.   
  • Freezer: Store in freezer in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.  Thaw in the fridge overnight before using, whisk to combine if it separates. 
  • Substitutions:
  • Substitutions:
  • Milk: You can also substitute up to 1/2 cup of 2% milk for whole. 
  • Sugar: You can substitute honey for the sugar, although it will make for a much darker, golden-colored condensed milk.
