FAQ:
Q: Can I use skim or low-fat milk instead of whole milk?
A: Whole milk works best for a creamy, thick texture. While you can use skim or low-fat milk, the result may be less rich.
Q: Can I make this in advance?
A: Yes! You can prepare the condensed milk ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to two weeks.
Q: Can I double or triple the recipe?
A: Absolutely! Just be sure to use a larger saucepan to accommodate the increased volume and stir more frequently to prevent burning.
Q: Can I make this recipe without a stovetop?
A: Yes! You can make condensed milk in a slow cooker or in the microwave by following similar steps, adjusting the time accordingly.
