I really liked this method of making dulce de leche...I haven't been successful with other methods and was too afraid of boiling it over the stove top. Thank you!

I can't rate this as I haven't tried it yet. I just wanted to say that I grew up on carmelized condescended milk (aka Dulce de Leche) & it's great. Better still now, Nestle's La Lechera has started producing Dulce de Leche & you can find it next to the condescended milk or in the latin foods sections of most any grocery store. I can't wait to try this out on my family.
