🥛 Homemade Condensed Milk (Only 2 Ingredients)
Making condensed milk at home is simple, cheap, and requires just two ingredients. It’s a great substitute for store-bought condensed milk and works well in desserts, coffee, and baking.
🧾 Ingredients
- 2 cups milk (about 500 ml)
- ¾ cup sugar (about 150 g)
👩🍳 How to Make It
- Add milk and sugar to a saucepan.
- Heat on low to medium heat.
- Stir occasionally so the sugar dissolves and the milk doesn’t burn.
- Let it simmer for 30–40 minutes until it reduces and becomes thick.
- Remove from heat and let it cool — it will thicken even more.
🍰 How to Use It
You can use homemade condensed milk in:
- Coffee or tea ☕
- Cakes and desserts 🎂
- Puddings and custards
- Fruit toppings
It tastes very similar to store brands like Nestlé condensed milk.
💡 Helpful Tips
- Keep the heat low to prevent burning.
- Stir more often when the milk starts thickening.
- Store in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
✅ Bonus trick:
If you want faster condensed milk, you can mix 1 cup milk powder + ½ cup sugar + ½ cup hot water and blend for a minute.
