CROCKPOT CARAMEL SAUCE RECIPE (DULCE DE LECHE)

Picture
This very simple caramel sauce is so easy to make, and can be used as a tart filling, as a dip, and as a sauce so when I saw the tinned version in Coles last week, for $6 per 430g jar I was gobsmacked!

​Honestly, it is so simple to make, and costs under $3 to make twice the quantity if you MOO the condensed milk.

It makes a great gift too.

Ingredients:
2 cans condensed milk (or one quantity of MOO condensed milk)
4 screw top preserving jars

Method:
Pour condensed milk equally into the four jars, leaving 3cm of space at the top of each jar.
Screw lids on VERY tight.  Place jars in slow cooker, then fill slow cooker with warm water until jars are fully submerged, with about an extra 3cm of water above the jar lids. Cook on LOW for 9 hours.
After 9 hours, carefully remove jars with tongs {they’ll be HOT}, and allow to cool for 30 minutes.
After jars have cooled, remove lids, grab some apple slices, and start dipping into your delicious caramel sauce!

Notes
Extra caramel sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.  Enjoy cold throughout the week, or microwave to soften it up before using. 

​This recipe is from the Slow Cooker Recipe File
