How to Make Caramel Sauce from Condensed Milk :

Step 1

At this point making this caramel sauce is simple and relaxing. Just follow the steps slowly and stir often.

Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a medium saucepan. Place the pan over low to medium heat.

Step 2

Continue on to stir the condensed milk gently as it warms. The milk will slowly start to thicken and darken.

Continue cooking for about 15–20 minutes. Stir often so the milk does not stick to the bottom of the pan. The color will change from pale cream to light golden caramel.

Step 3

Next up once the caramel becomes thicker and darker, add the butter. Stir until the butter melts completely into the sauce.

Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. If you like salted caramel, add a small pinch of salt.

Step 4

The caramel will thicken more as it cools. Stir gently until it reaches your favorite consistency.

You can enjoy the caramel sauce right away while it is warm, or store it in a jar for later use.

Step 5

The final result is a smooth, glossy caramel sauce that pours beautifully.
