I have to laugh at this!!! Every time my mother would use sweetened condensed milk, I always wanted to eat it out of the can!!! I remember telling her that when I grew up and had my own kitchen I was going to eat a whole can of this stuff...ugh!!! Now, I can make my own!!!!!! Thank you so much for this handy recipe. I know this will come in handy through the holidays!!!!!!
Thanks so much for watching Betty!!! Oh that’s so funny!🤣. Yes we’ll back then I’m sure it wasn’t $4.50 a can! So crazy right? This is really easy. Just takes a bit of time. I hope you can try it!
Good evening Karen! What a money saving video; thank you so so much! We will definitely be doing this. We make our own caramel sauce; so much better than store bought. Taking time to make these items is well worth it. I make my own cranberry sauce and use it on French toast, bagels, pancakes! Getting back to basics is what it’s all about. Hope you’re doing well my friend. See you on the next video!
Hey Laura!! Thanks for watching my Friend! Oh I completely agree!! Homemade caramel sauce is way better! I just can’t believe how much the price of this went up! It’s really easy. Just takes a bit of time. Hope you can try it.
Thanks so much for watching and sharing this Charmaine!! It’s crazy just how much it’s fine up in price this year! I’m going to make a triple batch next month for fudge 🥰
I always felt guilty cooking with SCM! The recipe called for a can but I always had to eat at least 3 teaspoons!! Oh, I never scraped the can either, nope that was mine!😂Excellent Karen, thanks for this post!!🌺🌸🌺
Haha. I love it 🤣. I was super shocked when I realized how much this stuff had gone up in price lately!! It’s really easy to make yourself. Just takes a bit of time. I hope you can try it sometime! I did have a couple spoons 🤣. Thanks for watching Jacqueline ❤️
Those sure are crazy high prices you showed the store selling sweetened condensed milk for! I'm guessing you're in California? I live in Texas. Yesterday my wife went to a local store and paid around $2.50 for a 14 oz generic can which works fine. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I will definitely try it! Hopefully it will save unnecessary trips to the store!
Hi Karen I made a recipe last year call Better than any thing cake, twice, and it calls for this and a jar of smuckers caramel. I sometimes buy the off brands at Aldi store. which is $1. 67 . but I'm going try making it. Thanks 😊
Thank you for watching Pamela!! Oh that cake sounds amazing!! I love anything with caramel! Wow that’s a great price! We do r have Aldi stores here in San Francisco 😢
Thanks so much for watching Sherry!! It’s really easy. Just requires a bit of time. And it’s ready to go in the fridge for lots of different uses. Ive been using it my coffee and I love it.
Hi Sheila! Thanks so much for watching! Oh great! I would recommend since you are making it to do a double or triple batch. 🥰. Keeps for 3 weeks in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer
Oh awesome!! Just remember to not cook it too high....just a simmer. And it will come out fine! I made triple batch last week for some chocolate fudge. Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for watching Kendra!! Yes it just takes a bit of time! I refuse to pay that high price any more🤣. I’ll be making a triple batch near Christmas and keeping it in the fridge for Fudge💜
Thank you for sharing your useful tips on making Sweetened Condensed Milk! I enjoyed watching your video until the end! I'll definitely try at my home! Great sharing, my friend! Thanks! Hello! Greetings from 100tour KOREA! I am new to your channel! See you, my friend! Have a good day!
This recipe is awesome on my second batch this time a double for a fraction of the price as storebought and so much tastier.Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Hey Karen this is a wining recipe for condensed milk for sure it has also got very expensive here to and I usually buy 4 tins a month so this recipe of yours is going to save me for sure huge like from me my friend have a good week
hey my Friend!! Thank you so much for watching!! Aww thank you. This was really easy to make..just takes a bit a time and I am refusing to pay that much at the store for milk and sugar in a can!! Hahaha.
OMG! How exciting!! Well I am quite sure you can easily quadruple this batch or even more than that! Best of luck to you! And yes it saves so much money!
What a great video my dear friend! ❤ I absolutely love to do this at home too. When cooking a little more we make a very popular candy in Guatemala. I love this! Thank for sharing ❤
Thanks so much for watching Debbie!!! I appreciate you playing catch up 🥰. Yes prices have gotten insane. This is really easy. Just takes a little time.
Hey Sonia! I know right??? It’s outrageous!! Last year it was half the price!! This is so easy. Just takes a bit of time. I like to make a triple batch. Then at Holiday time you have it on hand to make fudge, cookies, etc. Thanks for watching my Friend ❤️
Hey Paulie!! Thanks so much for watching my Friend!! Yep. I just can’t believe how much this stuff has gone up in price! Crazy! I mean it’s just sugar and milk! 🤣
Thanks so much for watching Margaret!! This is such an easy thing. Just requires a bit of time. And then you will always have some ready in the fridge for any kind of recipe!
My niece has this way when goes shopping for food, she knows what she's going to make. she msy find a recipe on tic toc or something, but when she gets in the kitchen and its meatloaf with bacon on top. southern potatoes and string beans. cornbread, now the only thing I'm good at and my niece's older son loves is my potatoe salad, QUESTION, fo you fo any other sauces, or cake, my all time favorite 2 cakes are pound cake and coconut cake.
Thank you so much for watching Pamela!! I have quite a few cake recipe videos!!! Some are quite simple and start with a boxed cake mix. Hope you. Can try one!
Hi Marlene!! Thanks so much for watching and joining me!!! Unfortunately 2% isn’t going to work. You need the fat content in whole milk to get a creamy result. You could also substitute half and half if he buys that. And just use 3 parts to one part 2%.
I make my own coffee creamer and I use the sweetened condensed milk but I use the skim milk when I make my own coffee creamer is this going to make any difference mixing the whole milk with the skim milk
I've always wondered how to do this. I tried one time but it ended up more like uhm, caramel..my kids loved it..I think I had it too high for too long..
There's one thing that I'm not good at is baking. I have 3 more sisters in my family and my sister thst lives in California. snd my baby sister are good at it, now my niece. cooks and bakes like mom. she can but together anything, like macaroni and cheese, baked beans. sweet cornbread, collard greens, a seafood casserole. I mean anything. 😊me personally. a chicken hot dog, and chips or peanut butter sandwich and Ramen noodles and cold glass of milk.
Hi Pamela! Like is mentioned in your previous comment, I have lots of cakes and cookie recipes that are pretty simple. So I’m sure you would be able to make one of them! Let me know if you do!!
Ooo yes my 2 favorite are and I haven't eaten them ina long time, macadamia cookies and my niece's 10 yr old and I love them chocolatey chip cookies. 😊
What kind of sugar can I use other than regular because I'm a diabetic so I need to know what other substitute for sugar I can use and how much of it do I need
@@lakishathomas9305 Im honestly not sure..Ive never tried making it sugar free but I there are some YT videos you can look up...search....sugar free sweetened condensed milk
Thank you for watching Kathleen! Ya I wish I could..but California does not have ALDI. So prices here are very expensive. But I have made this many times and its always worked great in recipes.
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Karen, Aldi's is all over the Southern CA region, maybe not where you are located if you are in the San Francisco area, and I think I heard you say you are.
that's so cool Karen! yeah I've noticed the sweetened condensed milk is very expensive and I just recently learned that you can make it yourself! I should totally try it, it seems really easy and it makes a lot!
Oh yes you need to try it for sure. It’s so simple. It just requires a bit of time. Last year it was literally half that price!!! Thanks for watching Anadi!!
I just made this, and it came out so rich. Cooling off now, should thicken some more. I used half and half because I didn't have any regular milk left and I couldn't wait to try the recipe. Thank you so much for this. I didn't know it went up so much! OMG! I'm always hunting for a left over can after the holidays. Now I'll never buy it again🥰😘
Oh awesome MarLinda!!! I’m thrilled you tried it!! The price has actually come down a bit since I made this video. But making it yourself is still much cheaper!!
Hi sis. This is an awesome tutorial. I purchase condensed milk all of the time, but never once considered that I can make it myself. That is a great deal for sure. Sandee
Thanks so much for watching Sandee!! Yes it’s just gotten SO expensive I refuse to buy it anymore. This is so easy to make. I hope you can try it my Friend!!
I use sweetened condensed milk all the time and wish I knew about this sooner. This is Amazing! I love this wonderful recipe. Thanks for such a useful and amazing share! Perfect for around the holidays 🥰💞👍🏻
Thanks for watching my Friend!! Yes I just refuse to pay those crazy prices anymore! This is so easy. Just requires a bit of time. But if you make a triple batch and keep it in the fridge for Christmas it’s so worth it!
It never used too!! Last year it was half that price!!! And I refuse to pay it now. It’s so easy just to make it yourself. Thanks so much for watching Tracy!!
Is there anything else that will work for the sweetness instead of 1 cup of regular sugar? I could just use less sugar, but I’m really trying to stay away from just plain cane sugar, to something lighter for my blood sugar. If you have any ideas on what else I could add for the sugar portion, please let me know. Thanks so much for this video. I really appreciate it! As of today (2-25-24) The 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk at Walmart, where I live, is $2.58 for Eagle brand or $1.86 for Great Value brand. Your store is way overpriced on this item. I read somewhere that somebody bought theirs at Dollar Tree, so you may want to check there too. Thanks Again
Hi there! Thank you so much for watching and your comments. Unfortunately I’ve never tried to make it with a sugar substitute before, but I have seen other channels on TH-cam use alulose. So perhaps do a search on TH-cam. When I filmed that video prices were at an all time high😩. So thankfully they have come down a bit
What a great savings! The last can I bought was an off brand for $1.09 (a little over 1 year ago). Today it is $4.49. I planned on making a loaf of condensed milk sweet bread today, but I'm out of SCM. Do you think your milk recipe will work in a home made bread recipe? I need 1/2 cup SCM, 1cup water, 3-1/3 cup flour, a tad of butter, salt and yeast. This would be wonderful if it works in my bread !!!! Thanks, Karen. 😀
Thank you for being thorough with your video. I've been looking to make sweet condensed milk but other videos I've watched does not say how much their recipes yield.
Hi my friend, hope you're having a wonderful week so far. Best wishes to you my friend. Have a wonderful week and stay blessed as always my friend. 💲🍻🤙🏻🍾🎉🤑🍀💰😍🙏🏻🎰💯🤘🏻🏆💗🎊🥂💪🏻😎🤜🏻🤛🏻
Hi Karen this is so cool! I did not know you could actually make evaporated milk or condensed milk nor did I know the difference between the two. Of course I’m not a baker but I don’t like anyone in my household for example if my wife or daughter spending almost 5 dollars a can for condensed milk lol. What about after it’s finished putting the jar with the seal on it in a hot bath in canning? Would that be the same as as can in the pantry?
Thanks so much for watching Brian!! Yes it’s just crazy how expensive that stuff has gotten just in the past year!! It’s not recommended to can sweetened condensed milk because it has a low acid content. But like I mentioned it will last in your freezer for 3 months!
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Excellent Karen. Definitely appreciate the tip on canning. The only thing I usually can is okra and peppers. I did canned some cherry tomatoes a few times this year but with the skins on they didn’t really do as good as I thought they would.
I aGree as so many oF uS aRe liVinG frugally right now!👍I am goinG to be makinG thiS later today to uSe to make 2 Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge...Yippee!😍🎉✌
I feel like I’m the only one who can’t successfully do this lol? I’ve tried twice now today and it just won’t thicken? Heat was on low to dissolve the sugar and then I simmered it but nothing happens. I think my stove is messed up or something
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Yes real milk and sugar lol. I ended up just throwing it in the freezer and it thickened in there so that’ll work for me lol same consistency and taste. Food hack!
I made this recipe but I doubled ingredients so I used 3 cups of regular milk and one cup sugar. I stirred it all the way to 40 minutes. I put into a storage container and placed in freezer. After 24 hours my mixture frozen to a soft icy texture. Is this right? Usually when I buy at the store brand I can freeze the condensed milk but it still stays as a liquid. What did I do wrong?
Hi there. Ive honestly never frozen this before. So I can’t tell you what the consistency should be. But if I had to guess, I would say like you described… a soft icy texture
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Thank you for reply. I took the mixture out from freezer and placed in refrigerator instead. I will prepare something with the mixture in a day or two. I will start a new batch soon. I know practice will make it better.
I have to laugh at this!!! Every time my mother would use sweetened condensed milk, I always wanted to eat it out of the can!!!

The 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk at Walmart, where I live, is $2.58 for Eagle brand or $1.86 for Great Value brand.
Your store is way overpriced on this item.
I read somewhere that somebody bought theirs at Dollar Tree, so you may want to check there too.
Thanks Again
Hi there! Thank you so much for watching and your comments. Unfortunately I’ve never tried to make it with a sugar substitute before, but I have seen other channels on TH-cam use alulose. So perhaps do a search on TH-cam. When I filmed that video prices were at an all time high😩. So thankfully they have come down a bit
Thank you for this! Love the simplicity - my problem was the heat causing it to boil over (then it tastes scorched).
Thank you for watching. Yes you really need to make sure it’s not boiling, just simmering and to stir it often. Hope you can try another batch.
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Success! Made a delicious batch - keep up the good work! :-)
@@TheLastMinuteCook yay!!!!
Mmm delicious the condensed milk that you make friend! Like a lot how you prepare it! Excellent work! 🦇
Thanks so much for watching!
What a great savings! The last can I bought was an off brand for $1.09 (a little over 1 year ago). Today it is $4.49. I planned on making a loaf of condensed milk sweet bread today, but I'm out of SCM. Do you think your milk recipe will work in a home made bread recipe? I need 1/2 cup SCM, 1cup water, 3-1/3 cup flour, a tad of butter, salt and yeast. This would be wonderful if it works in my bread !!!! Thanks, Karen. 😀
Yes Joan it should totally work!! Thank you for watching!!
Did I miss something? Why didn’t you use evaporated milk?
You dont use use evaporated milk for this recipe. Regular whole milk
Thank you for being thorough with your video. I've been looking to make sweet condensed milk but other videos I've watched does not say how much their recipes yield.
Hi Ella! Thank you so much for watching and I’m so happy you found the instructions helpful ❤️❤️
Thanks
I love to bake, and it becoming costly just to buy a small can of condensed milk.....Now, i will make my own from scratch
Thanks so much for watching! Yes!! So crazy.
Hi thank you watch your video today .I made he most delish condense milk.Love from South Africa
Thanks so much for watching! And all the way from S Africa!! This is so good in so many recipes!
so awesome, Karen! I will definitely have to give this a try!
It’s super easy. Just requires a bit of time. And I refuse to pay that ridiculous price anymore 🤣. Thanks for watching Molly!!!

Thanks so much for watching Jessie! Yes it’s super easy. Just requires a bit of time. I refuse to pay that outrageous price 🤣

Awww. Thanks so much for stopping y DG!! You too my Friend!! 🥰❤️
Hi Karen this is so cool! I did not know you could actually make evaporated milk or condensed milk nor did I know the difference between the two. Of course I’m not a baker but I don’t like anyone in my household for example if my wife or daughter spending almost 5 dollars a can for condensed milk lol. What about after it’s finished putting the jar with the seal on it in a hot bath in canning? Would that be the same as as can in the pantry?
Thanks so much for watching Brian!! Yes it’s just crazy how expensive that stuff has gotten just in the past year!! It’s not recommended to can sweetened condensed milk because it has a low acid content. But like I mentioned it will last in your freezer for 3 months!
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Excellent Karen. Definitely appreciate the tip on canning. The only thing I usually can is okra and peppers. I did canned some cherry tomatoes a few times this year but with the skins on they didn’t really do as good as I thought they would.
4 us dollars a can?! i'm in australia and a can here is less than $1.50 (about 1 usd)
Yes its crazy right? Its come down a little bit since that video but its still way cheaper to make your own! Thank you for watching!
Karen, you're a life saver and I and my wallet thank you.
Hey Bertie! Thanks so much for watching ! Oh you’re welcome! Yes the price if a cab has just gotten insane!

I aGree as so many oF uS aRe liVinG frugally right now!👍I am goinG to be makinG thiS later today to uSe to make 2 Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge...Yippee!😍🎉✌
I feel like I’m the only one who can’t successfully do this lol? I’ve tried twice now today and it just won’t thicken? Heat was on low to dissolve the sugar and then I simmered it but nothing happens. I think my stove is messed up or something
Thanks so much for watching. Gosh, that is so strange 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️. It always thiickens fir me. Are you using whole milk and real sugar?
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren Yes real milk and sugar lol. I ended up just throwing it in the freezer and it thickened in there so that’ll work for me lol same consistency and taste. Food hack!
@@AirForceKrissy I love it!!!
I made this recipe but I doubled ingredients so I used 3 cups of regular milk and one cup sugar. I stirred it all the way to 40 minutes. I put into a storage container and placed in freezer. After 24 hours my mixture frozen to a soft icy texture. Is this right? Usually when I buy at the store brand I can freeze the condensed milk but it still stays as a liquid. What did I do wrong?
Hi there. Ive honestly never frozen this before. So I can’t tell you what the consistency should be. But if I had to guess, I would say like you described… a soft icy texture
@@IntheKitchenwithKaren
Thank you for reply. I took the mixture out from freezer and placed in refrigerator instead. I will prepare something with the mixture in a day or two. I will start a new batch soon. I know practice will make it better.
I made this and I love it. I will save money.
Yay!!! I’m so glad you tried it!! Thanks so much!
Once made can you pressure can it?
Thanks for watching! Honestly I am not a canner. So I do t know.
Yeah I make my own too
Thank you so much. It only costs me about 1.29 in my grocery store, but I’d like to make my own with organic milk, which is 3.99 a can. ❤❤😉
Thank you for watching!! Yes that would be awesome!! Its so easy too
Karen does it again, greta idea 🍀🤩
Aww thanks so much for watching my Friend!
Can I use 2% milk?
Unfortunately no. You need whole milk.
yummy 🥛
Happy Sunday Karen ❤🙏
Thanks so much for watching Chappy!!
