Look at the creamy, thick, smooth consistency! It is so quick and easy using a blender or food processor, so this recipe comes together within minutes. The powdered sweetener yields the tastiest condensed milk that tastes better than the real, sugar-laden product we buy in the supermarkets!
This is the easiest condensed milk recipe. You don't have to boil and boil stuff on the stove top - just place in blender and blend - done. Bet you will like it more than regular condensed milk. It tastes better and the consistency is yummy, thick and goopy like condensed milk should be - no thickeners required either. Add a little more water if you would like it thinner. The carbs sound a little high but when you mix the recipe in a full dessert recipe, the carbs are spread very kindly, so not to worry. However, if you use the heavy cream powder, the carbs = zero!
The sweetener tables for all the most common scenarios are in my cookbooks for your convenience. For example, ¾ cup sugar sweetness (not ¾ cup liquid) using my bottle of sucralose from the EZ-Sweetz brand (whether the smaller one of 0.5 oz or the bigger yellow bottle of 2 oz – Zero carbs) would be 18 or 36 drops respectively. Here is an article and video about the sweeteners. Part 1 There is another article and video here: Part 2.
1/3 cup PLUS 1 tbsp boiling water (90 mL)
2 tbsp unsalted butter (30 mL)
2 tbsp regular butter (30 mL)
1 cup whole milk powder, OR coconut milk powder, OR (250 mL)
4 tbsp powdered sweetener like allulose, OR erythritol (60 mL)
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract (2 mL)
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract (2 mL)
In blender, combine boiling water, unsalted and regular butter; process. Add whole, OR skim milk powder (OR see Helpful Hints for alternatives), liquid sweetener, powdered sweetener and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides occasionally. If the condensed milk is not thick and super smooth, add 1 tbsp (15 mL) hot water at a time to the mixture and blend again. It must be smooth like condensed milk - not grainy at all. I sometimes add up to 4 tbsp (60 mL) extra hot water!
Helpful Hints: There are two other alternatives to whole milk or skim milk powder that can bring the carbs down a little....coconut milk powder and heavy cream powder (the latter is apparently available in Walmart).
