1 cup powdered milk
2/3 cup granulated sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla




Preparation

1. Place the powdered milk, granulated sugar, vanilla, boiling water, and the melted butter in a blender.
2. Blend all ingredients together until they are smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender occasionally to get all the dry ingredients incorporated.
3. If your homemade condensed milk is too thick to pour easily, add another spoonful or two of boiling water and whisk some more to incorporate.
4. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It will get thicker when it is refrigerated, but will loosen up when stirred and brought to room temperature.

  1. Oo, I never even thought about making condensed milk myself…! I am not a huge fan of the milk on its own, but of course it’s the base of dulce de leche so good to know I can now make even the milk myself too!

  2. That’s a great idea! Homemade fresh condensed milk is way better than canned milk. I’m certainly going to attempt to make this one♥

  3. Wouldn’t you know – I just came home from the store with a small can of it – I didn’t know you could make it – Thank you so much for the recipe!
