Wowsers this is good!!
I made it using the oven method and left it in the oven for 2 hours as that is how long I had it on for something else. Next time I might even cook it longer and see how it turns out!
REally good caramel!!

I used the oven method and cooked it one hour and 15 minutes. So yummy! Used it to make low fat ice cream, but the extra was good for so many things. Next time I will try the microwave method. You can use nonfat condensed milk and it still tastes awesome!

I used this recipe because it had micrwave directions. Very tasty! My only problem was that it got to be a little "crystalized". But that was solved by using a hand mixer while it was still warm. I put this in the fridge & the next day, made ice cream. I added this & some chopped pecans to the ice cream. It was a hit at our dinner party! Some of the Dulce de Leche had settled to the bottom of the ice cream - not much, but that wasn't a problem at all. Very very good. All the recipes I used are in my menu "Mexican Dinner Party". Thank you very much for the alternative cooking methods - I was too scared to try the "heat-in-the-unopened-can" method some had mentioned!
