How to Make Too Easy Baked Caramel Sweets

Preheat your oven to 100°C (210°F).
Line a 24cm x 18cm baking dish with non-stick baking paper, leaving some overhang on the sides to help with lifting out later.
Carefully open 2 (397g each) cans of sweetened condensed milk. Pour the contents into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 90-95 minutes, or until the caramel is a deep golden brown and has thickened significantly. Keep an eye on it as ovens can vary.
Remove from the oven and let the caramel cool completely in the dish. The caramels will continue to set as they cool.
Once completely cool (at least 2 hours, preferably overnight), refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up further.
Carefully lift the caramel slab from the baking dish using the overhanging baking paper. Slice into squares and serve.
