How to Make Dulce De Leche Sauce

  1. In a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy whipping cream and ½ cup packed light brown sugar.
  2. Stir over medium heat, constantly, until the brown sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture begins to simmer.
  3. Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces to approximately 1 cup and thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes). Be careful not to burn it.
  4. Remove from heat and carefully stir in 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk until completely smooth and incorporated.
  5. Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
