I just found this recipe in the back of a cookbook that I got as a wedding gift....33 years ago. All these years, I could have been making this for my hubby's homemade ice cream!! Thank for showing me how easy this is!!!

Thank you

[@oicamladnoeled2901]

Just did it a few moments ago and it works thank you so much for sharing without vanilla even taste better 😊delicious

[@gilc.6888]

Thank you. I made this.

[@els7362]

Can you pressure cook this for caramel? Can you make in large batches?

[@cherylrichardson1044]

What a good recipe to have around when you need it. Do you think you could use 2% milk and just add more butter to get the fat content up?

[@AdventuresinEverydayCooking]

Probably... but I'm no expert! LOL

I wanted to make homemade Irish Cream (fake Bailey's) and was stunned to find I'm out of canned sweetened condensed milk, so I've been searching for recipes. I saw some that suggested using other sweeteners, like honey, and that appeals to me because I have a lot of raw honey. However, I know that heating raw honey over about 130 degrees ruins many of the benefits of raw honey, so I have a question/suggestion for you. Do you think it is necessary to reduce the milk with sweetener in it for some reason? I get that heating would better dissolve the granulated sugar, but I wonder if I could simmer the volume of milk away and add honey along with the vanilla extract and butter. I think I'll give it a try, but figured I'd ask here as well for future raw-honey-lovers who may want to make this recipe. Thanks!

I wonder something similar! And if was possible to add the sweetener, whatever it was (I'm allergic to honey, unfortunately... ). Maybe after cooking the milk? Here in Brazil , for some reason, we don't have any national evaporated milk available in the supermarkets (even with our huge milk production... ) ; anyway, I suppose it's a good idea :)
PS: I found some very good evaporated milk recipes here on UA-cam, I made it today and it turned out really good!

[@stephaniearlene3807]

Can we attempt this with non dairy milk? Such as almond or oat milk?

[@AdventuresinEverydayCooking]

I’ve not done it, but I have this recipe saved to try! detoxinista.com/sweetened-condensed-coconut-milk/

[@evareisinger1738]

Is ist really 4 tablespoons butter, looks like 4 teaspoons? Thank you!

[@AdventuresinEverydayCooking]

It is for sure 4 Tablespoons of butter. :)

[@Las645]

Is that salted or unsalted butter?

[@AdventuresinEverydayCooking]

I believe I used unsalted for that one! But I've used both!
