Preparation

Step 1

This recipe uses Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet. This is my all-time favorite low-carb, sugar free sweetener. There is NO aftertaste! This sweetener is a powdered blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia. See the note section of the recipe card for a DIY version. (Please be aware that xylitol is deadly to dogs, but Trim Healthy Mama has produced a Xylitol-Free Gentle Sweet. That would be perfect for dog owners!)

Just a note to the wise – please do not walk out of the room and leave your simmering pot of condensing “milk” on the stove. It may boil over voraciously and cause your 7 year old daughter to come screaming into the next room. (I may or may not have done this). Ok, I DID do it and it made a huge mess! Whew! Glad we got that out of the way!

**Updated to Add**

The larger the surface area of your pan, the faster your “milk” will reduce. So try to use a large shallow pan if you have one (think, frying pan?). Please view the video posted above to see how it should look when it is ready.

It should not take hours to condense (unless you double or triple the recipe.) It really does help to use a larger pan. It also will continue to thicken as it cools.

Yield:

Place all ingredients in a medium sized saucepan or skillet* (*see notes below) over medium heat.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until reduced by nearly half, stirring several times to prevent scorching. (You should not have to stir continuously, just once in a while.)

This will take between 15-20 minutes.

Makes approximately 1 -1 1/2 cups of Sweetened Condensed Milk.
