Ingredients
Scale
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Prepare the Jars: Divide the sweetened condensed milk among two 8-ounce canning jars or four 4-ounce jars. Secure the lids and place them on a trivet in the Instant Pot. Add enough water to almost reach the lids on the jars (about 1/2 inch below the metal lids).
- Pressure Cook: Secure the Instant Pot lid and ensure the steam release vent is in the sealing position. Select the pressure cook (or manual on older models) setting, high pressure, and set the timer for 30 minutes. When the time is up, allow a natural release for 15 minutes. Carefully release the remaining steam.
- Finish: Remove the jars to a rack to cool, then refrigerate and use within 2 weeks.
Notes
Tips for Thinning Dulce de Leche
- If the dulce de leche is too thick after chilling, stir in a teaspoon or two of milk or cream until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Warm it gently in the microwave (5-10 seconds at a time) or on the stovetop over low heat, then stir until smooth.
- For a pourable sauce, thin with warm evaporated milk or a splash of water and whisk until fully blended.
