Ingredients
- 3 (14-oz.) cans sweetened condensed milk
- 5 (8-oz.) jelly jars
- water
Preparation
Step 1
Fill each jelly jar up to the 6-oz. line with the sweetened condensed milk. Three cans of sweetened condensed milk should fill about 5 jars. Place a lid on each jar and tighten the band down well.
Place the jars inside the slow cooker and pour water in to about 1" above the top of the jars.
Cover and cook on low for 7.5-8 hours, checking occasionally to see if more water needs to be added. Do not let the water drop below the lid level.
Carefully remove the jars from the slow cooker and enjoy! The caramel may be a tad chunky and is perfectly delicious as is, but if you prefer a creamier caramel, simple whisk it until it's silky smooth.
Store in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature or heat until warm before serving.
