Dulce de Leche

Cuisinart original

Although this is readily available in most supermarkets, it is quite simple to make your own. The longer you cook it, the richer and
more concentrated the caramel flavor gets.

Yields

Makes about 1½ cups

Ingredients

2          cans (13 - 14 ounces each) nonfat sweetened condensed milk

            pinch kosher salt

½         teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

1. Put all of the ingredients into the cooking pot of the Multicooker.

2. Set the unit on Brown/Sauté at 350°F to bring mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Once mixture just comes to a boil, reduce heat to 250°F so that it is at a low simmer. Keep pot uncovered and stir occasionally, cooking the sauce until it is a dark caramel color and thickened, but pourable, about 1 to 1 hour 15 minutes.

3. Switch to Slow Cook on Warm if serving immediately, or bring to room temperature and store in refrigerator if using at a later time.*

 

*To reheat, first bring dulce de leche to room temperature, and then warm desired amount in a small saucepan over low heat.
