Recipe: Dulce de Leche (condensed milk caramel, instant pot or pressure cooker)

Desserts - Fillings, Frostings
DULCE DE LECHE

"A pressure cooker gives you dulce de leche in a fraction of the time it takes in the oven or in a pot of boiling water on the stove. Use it as a sauce for ice cream or bread pudding, as a filling for cookies and cakes, or do what I do and eat it directly from the fridge with a spoon when no one is looking." - From: Dinner in an Instant



"Dulce de leche will last for at least three weeks in the refrigerator."

TIME: 1 1/2 hours
YIELD: 1 (14 ounce) can
GF - VEG

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or brandy
Large pinch of fine sea salt

Remove the paper label from the can of sweetened condensed milk and discard it. Open the can and discard the top (do not leave the lid on the can). Cover the opening of the can tightly with a piece of aluminum foil.

Insert the steamer rack in the pressure cooker and put the can of condensed milk on the rack. Add enough water to reach halfway up the sides of the can. Cover and cook on high pressure for 40 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally.

Transfer the can of milk to a wire rack, uncover, and let cool for at least 20 minutes; then mix in the vanilla and salt.

Serve warm or let it cool completely. Store in the refrigerator.
