      Title: ONE INGREDIENT SOFT CARAMEL
 Categories: Candies
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
           - Judy Dunn   SSPJ19B
      1 cn Sweetened condensed milk
           -   (not evaporated)
 
  Remove label from can.  Place UNOPENED can in the bottom of a VERY
  DEEP pot, such as a deep dutch oven. Cover with water so that the
  water is 3 to 4-inches above the can. Bring the water to a boil and
  boil steadily for four (4) hours.
  
  YOU MUST MAKE SURE THAT THE CAN IS ALWAYS TOTALLY COVERED WITH WATER.
  NEVER LET THE WATER LEVEL GET DOWN TO THE TOP OF THE CAN, BECAUSE
  THIS COULD CAUSE THE CAN TO EXPLODE.
  
  Don't worry, I've been doing this for years and years. At Easter time
  I boil 2 to 3 cans at once. After the four (4) hours is up, remove
  the can with tongs and place on a wire rack to cool. Be assured, the
  can will not explode.  Refrigerate.
  
  When can is cold, open and you will have soft caramel; even the color
  is caramel.  The only bad thing about boiling this one can is that
  you will be sorry you didn't boil two or three.
