I wanted to make one of my husband's favorite treats-"Magic Cookie Bars", but as usual did not have one of the key ingredients-Sweetened Condensed Milk. I am just too cheap to keep that on hand especially since it is not a need, but always a desire for a yummier desire that isn't good for the waistline.
I went searching-I figure if it is sold at a store, it had to be made from scratch at some point. What I didn't know is that it would be so incredibly simple and very delicious! I will never buy the can again!
Homemade Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/4 cup boiling water
3 TBLS butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup powdered milk
Using an electric mixer or a small blender (I use my magic bullet), blend together water, sugar, butter, and vanilla. Add powdered milk and blend until thickish. If there are leftovers, they are good in the fridge for at least 2 weeks (I won't admit how long I had the leftovers and then made chocolate sauce with them-oh man that was yummy too!).
