What I love is that so many people from all over the world know this from their relatives. It may have a different name but same great taste and unleashes magical memories.
When the war was on ...I was a very small child....I am 81 now......I particularly remember the Condensed Milk because we were always being scolded for " Laying on it " an expresion that my parents used back then .....I remember lots of people collecting tin cans for the war effort and lots of people talking about buying war bonds. Many things were rationed then...as a matter of fact I still have my ration book old and fragile as it is .Each member of the family received one I also remember seeing small fabric stars hanging in peoples windows showing how many children they had in the war......oh yes Sweetened Condensed Milk brings back many memories...some good and some not so good !...Carmine
Carmine Curcerello I’m 83, from San Antonio, Texas where the Air Force bases and Army bade are. We would be out playing and a squadron of B26 fighter plane would pass overhead. My sister and I would stand still until we saw the star under each wing...sweeten condense milk was the base for fudge!!!
Oh, the memories 😘! We were visiting family on another continent , after a 20 year gap, and the spread my cousin laid on for us was just awesome! My brother 55, burst into tears☺and said grace,. It was extremely emotional! a It's a fact that food evokes empathy in us all.😘😘
Carmine Curcerello I was born in Scotland in 1950 in a rural village. I still have Christening Robe with Utility Mark on it. It's as good as the day it was made. I could be wrong, but rationing was still done in UK until 1952/53. Condensed Milk. I daren't buy a tin, I would eat it with a spoon, yum yum. Being diagnosed Bordering Diabetic age 24, kept fainting, Homemade Scottish Fudge I made didn't help. Had to stop making it. I daren't have Icing Sugar in my home either. I've been careful all these years, do have an odd traybake or small piece of cake, not interested unless it's homemade, I've always cooked from fresh, only tins of various beans and Pulse in Larder, frozen peas, sweetcorn frozen whilst fresh, vegetarian except, occasional battered fish, fresh fish cooked in a light batter from Village Grill, 2.5mls away, I'm glad, temptation would be difficult if I lived in the Village! Every Friday evening we queued up, all 6 of us to get weekly ration of 1 tsp Cox Liver Oil, 1 tsp Syrup of Figs, 1tsp of thick Orange juice, could never fathom why my younger brother queued twice! Occasionally 1tsp of Malt. After that, got a paper bag with sweets my Dad bought a couple of pounds worth, divided Equally. Mine always lasted to the Thursday evening unless my brother found them. His lasted a day if he was lucky. The rest never got past Tuesday. Tried to eat when siblings weren't around as Dad told me off, I was baffled, I saved mine, made them last. They ate all theirs, then looked everywhere for mine. Brother used to find them until I found the best place of all, My Mother, she felt it was unfair I got chastised when I saved mine! The things Mums did for us, haha....
You're the same age as my Dad and he has it on bread. Also he used to eat Lard sandwiches and us kids would say yuk, how can you eat that Dad and he would say "What you kids need is a good war, you're all spoilt!"
When u make something from scratch and with love and u try to share it, people will talk negative but yet they will go to the store and buy all kinds of shit full of chemicals and feed it to their kids and that’s ok. Thank u very much for sharing this. I ate this as a kid but never knew thats how It was made.
I am going to have to try this now as it looks yummy. My 'naughty' habit is to eat condensed sweetened milk straight out of the tin with a spoon. I love the stuff x Thank you for the tutorial x
SandraOnFire Lloyd I wouldn't do that any more. Condensed milk is full of saturated fat, a lot of sugar (bad carbohydrates) and the salt is not low. Not a very healthy thing to put in your body.
I'm from Ghana and nobody can tell me otherwise, for those at the back saying it's nasty, this is how WE make our condensed milk toffee even some people will grate a little nutmeg in it for flavor, in other world caramelized or fudge candies, every kid or grown-up will tell you, we sell it in the market, school grounds, Sunday schools etc etc
Nana, my youngest daughter was in Ghana a few times for work. She works with students to do exchanges with universities all over the world. It gives students, who otherwise might not be able to afford it, the opportunity to go for a year to a University in another country. Anyway, she loves Ghana and it's people and had good friends there. After every trip she would bring me gifts, a beautiful, typical Ghanaen outfit, baskets and always the wonderful toffee which was individually wrapped in wax paper. God bless the hands that prepared them!
@Nana Serwaa Akyeampim There are always people who make rude remarks about the new or unfamiliar. I can only conclude their mothers didn't bother to teach them basic courtesy. They embarrass themselves but I think they are too ignorant to realize that.
Wanda Williams Sprinkle a little powdered cocoa in it and it will taste like tootsie rolls. Sometimes I add a little milk if I think it is going to be too hard. Regardless how soft or hard my grandchildren eat every bit of it.
Sweetened Condensed milk and I are very old friends......when I was a kid during World War 2......We used to sweeten and creme our coffee tea or oatmeal with Sweetened Condensed Milk because sugar was rationed........just a bit of trivia to add to the peacetime candy recipe .Carmine
Carmine Curcerello ... How well I remember loving condensed milk in coffee, when I was nine or ten. I don't use sugar in my coffee or tea, just milk, but it tasted so good with the condensed milk when I was a child.

I pour a can of condensed milk A bag of peanut butter chips and a tablespoon of peanut butter Cook it down till it sticks to itself Then pour out fudge!!!
It's amazing reading the comments how this simple recipe is known to so many different countries and generations. Also, how with just a pinch of this or that people can this make this their own unique creation. It seems like this makes a lot of people very nostalgic, so many memories of this sweet as a respite during hard times.
@@freedomforever1962 We didn't. We could not cook anything in cooking lessons, because we could never get the ingredients. Rationing didn't completely finish until 1952. I'm still like a child when I go to a sweet shop.
I don't want to watch this for 9 minutes if this person is not going to give me more instructions. Like how hot do yo cook, how long to you cook it, etc. Can you give me more info other than the ingredients and how much of each???
Here in Scotland UK we add butter and vanilla extract to the condensed milk in a deep thick based pan bring it to a rolling boil and once it starts to get to the caramel colour, we take it off the heat a beat it like billyoh. Takes a good 8 minutes or so of beating, has to be with a wooden spoon.When the mixture starts to go grainy/sugary granules and setting around edges of pan, pour it onto a lightly greased shallow baking tin and leave to set. Unfortunately due to Arthritis I can no longer beat anything any longer, I mean this in the nicest possible way lol. Lots of love from me Scotland xxx
U had me at oil and a can of sweet condensed milk! Who doesn't love SIMPLE?! I'm sure you can easily build of this base with chocolate dipping and or adding nuts etc.
is that what she poured in the pan at the start? oil? looked like she cooked it a while. I almost thought it was sugar bc it got brown before she poured the milk in.
This is awesome because I discovered I have a milk allergy and now I can't use condensed milk in cooking or tea (or just a spoon >_>) any more. Thanks for the tip. I can try this recipe now!
I could open a can and eat it all with a spoon. So could my daughter. I may try some in the can tomorrow. I have 4 cans in my pantry. When they poured it out of the can and didn't clean it out with a spatula, It really made me want to get my hands on that can. I don't leave 1 speck in my cans. Lol
@@cookiefrances1383 did you see her putting some egg yolks in the video?😂Dang.. Check the description below the video and the engridients said were only cooking oil, and condensed milk. So it's a yema, not dulce de leche. Dulce de leche is cook differently. Duce de leche is boiling the condensed milk inside the can for a long hours.😂😂
I don’t know if you’ve heard of Cliff Richard, he’ was a very big celebrity in the U.K., he’s getting on a bit now! I knew one of his biggest fans, she always went to his yearly pre Christmas concerts, and she always took his birthday present with her (I don’t know when his birthday is) which was a tin of sweetened condensed milk and a loaf of bread, so he could make, as they’re called in the U.K. conny onny butties. I’ve never been in the least interested in them, my favourite sweet treat is golden syrup “butties” 😋
Imagine this with coconut oil and coconut condensed milk. Yumm. And flavouring is endless if you use an oil based flavouring. Damn now I want to make this. Thank you for the video
R Saleh The way she taught, it made the consistency like...dried caramel? It’s chewy, but “melts” like a butter mint would I guess. They’re definitely not “hard” if cooked slowly. That’s the key-slow and low!!! Mannnnn!!!! That’s a heck of a question lol It never occurred that I’d have to describe it some day LoL
I love the creativity! I would never have thought to cook sweetened condensed milk like this, but it makes delicious looking caramel candy! Thank you for sharing!
They are long caramels in vanilla and chocolate ones, too and they have this cream center that is really neat because they cream is cool when you bite into it and makes a good foil for the caramel. The reason they are called cow tails is because they are long and round like cows' tails.
I'd add a teaspoon of vanilla right before it start to come together. Maybe use butter so it would have a buttery flavor and more of a vanilla caramel.. Just a thought..🤗
Can you give me your recipe with the butter and vanilla. This video had zero instruction and the only ingredient it showed was the can of milk. I'm guessing that clear liquid in the pan was oil? No directions were provided. Maybe it should be simple but I am a direction follower. Yours sounds better.
Lajuana Longoria underneath the post she wrote 2 tablespoons of oil and one can of condensed milk it’s not exactly a difficult recipe to follow it didn’t have more than 2 ingredients so there’s not much to follow pour the oil in pan pour the condensed Milk and stir until it caramelises and comes together and then shape really not that difficult and not something you need a recipe book or step by steps for its common sense
Never thought you could do this but thanks! Ive got to try this 😀 An update : I have done this twice. The first time, I tried mixing chocolate in it near the end but it didn’t turn out well at all . The chocolate doesn’t work with it. It turns the whole thing into a big mountain of crumbs. I highly advise never to do that. Second time I did it again without chocolate and it turned out wonderful!!! So delicious! My family loves it too much and wishes to have it often. I’ll see about that because it does take a lot of time and patience for me, unless I can get another person to take turns in mixing with me! Thanks for the idea 💡 one more thing, use butter and coconut oil instead of plain oil. Adds more flavor 🙂
Isca S you know, that just might be the only way. Still it can’t be mixed into chocolate so it would only be chocolate covered. I didn’t think of that but thanks. I may try that 😉
You can try mixing in several teaspoons of cocoa powder at the beginning of process. This should do the trick, and add more taste and delightful bitterness to this super sweet recipe.
I thought of Dulce too when I saw this. But.... Dulce de Leche can be made even more easily than this. Put the closed tin in a pot with boiling water, let simmer gently for about 2 hours and that's it. As an added bonus, you don't get oil (= extra fat) in your dulce. Though I'm not sure my dulce will harden out and turn into candy. It stays softer, it's a thick, creamy syrup you can pour over desserts or cakes. I will give this method a try and see if I can make some of that candy.
Joan Fordham I'm a chef of 20 years.....and it doesn't explode. Made it literally thousands of times over the decades. You can also do it in the crock pot, in the can. It obviously takes a lot longer. Lol
@@HeatherMaderArt It's a dilemma... "do I go for a quick-fix, instant consumer gratification recipe or do I go for the lazy-ass, 2-hours of being a couch-potato approach?" XD
I never knew you could make candy from condensed milk! Awesome! I’ve actually boiled an unopened can, when you open it....it’s a delicious caramel sauce for pies, cakes and ice cream. Thanks for sharing, I’m definitely gonna try this.
Hi @Mavis D. , I'm new to your channel, and I really enjoyed your video. I have a couple of questions. What setting do you have the stove burner on while you're heating the mixture? Also, I noticed you added a small amount of liquid periodically while heating. Was that more oil, or water? Thank you for sharing this! 😊💜
@Brenda Jarmusz I did not say she did a bad job ok . Since she did not speak to say the times and measures we dont know , and no she did not put that up there to see ok. Thanks
Have you ever tried adding condensed milk to sugar toffee?? Eg: White Sugar + Water let sugar dissolve then add condensed milk? I haven’t but am keen on trying a small batch to see what becomes of it.
Thank you! I have been searching how these candies where made. Ate them when we were young in South and Central America. I knew from the taste it had to be dulce de leche based. Now I am happy, thank you.🥰🤗
Reminds me a bit of a Brazilian candy I used to make, but that was flavored with chocolate and made into little balls rolled in chocolate sprinkles. I wonder how this would be if you substituted butter for the oil? That sweetened condensed milk is amazing stuff for making sweets. Thanks for sharing
I actually remembered earlier that my dad once cooked this for me on a stormy night to distract me from the terrifying thunders and then this vid was on my recommendation thank you!!
All week I've been thinking about making this for the first time for my son but been been to tired lol but my mommy used to make this for us cause we were poor so she get a of this and bam her kids had 🍬😢 rip mommy 💔
If when you take it off the heat a pull it which it just stretching and folding it over itself it gets air into it and makes a nice texture like taffy ...the way you did it we call Cow Tails which are yummy caramel ropes...I love making this it reminds me of being a kid when there was no money to buy candy from a store !
Gotta love all those yummy black pieces that begin mixing in around 1:20 and just keep ongoing. Did I miss a special spice or is that just a lot of delicious cancer causing Teflon...mmh mmh
@@klaritydawn Melt 1/2 stick of butter in the pan, add 1/2 cup molasses, complete the recipe as usual, let cool a bit,while still warm roll into a log and then roll it over whole pecans. : )
@@damianayre2130 You've just given me the best Christmas present!! I've been looking for an easy way to make pecan rolls and I'm about to try this one. Merry Christmas to you and yours from Canada!
You can put the whole can in a pan with water, cover it and boilit for about 3 hours and have homemade caramel. But you have to make sure the can remains covered. I do that and spoon over ice cream
How good would that be with coconut and/or pecans? Maybe peanuts or cashews would be delish too. I wonder if you could replace the veg oil with coconut oil.
Thanks for the history lesson Carmine. I always wondered why my parents used to serve condense milk in our tea instead of full cream milk. my parents were born around world war two 1930-1040's
What I love is that so many people from all over the world know this from their relatives. It may have a different name but same great taste and unleashes magical memories.

@@liz6733 or on cake or on my pointer finger in the middle of the night when I'm being a fat ass
@@nadirahcroom1938 😂😂😂sounds like me too!
Mucho
Yes im making this for christmas
My papa used to put condensed milk on slices of bread. Years after he's gone and I have dispensed with the bread and just eat it straight out the tin!
My mom didn't waste bread either. She ate it straight from the can, too.
I don’t know if you’ve heard of Cliff Richard, he’ was a very big celebrity in the U.K., he’s getting on a bit now! I knew one of his biggest fans, she always went to his yearly pre Christmas concerts, and she always took his birthday present with her (I don’t know when his birthday is) which was a tin of sweetened condensed milk and a loaf of bread, so he could make, as they’re called in the U.K. conny onny butties. I’ve never been in the least interested in them, my favourite sweet treat is golden syrup “butties” 😋
@@jennigee51 How interesting! I hadn't heard that. Thanks for sharing!
@@jennigee51 Another great treat!
Looks yummy. As a kid I liked to eat it straight from the tin
Me too!
You had my arm aching and my mouth watering. Looks delicious.
When I was a kid in Nigeria we had something called Goody-Goody that was caramel just like this
I was craving Carmel as I watched this. Now you've confirmed my thoughts! :)
You can only find this in Ghana 🇬🇭. I love my people
What no it’s everywhere in West Africa
It's litterally fried condensed milk no one came up with it
Imagine this with coconut oil and coconut condensed milk. Yumm. And flavouring is endless if you use an oil based flavouring. Damn now I want to make this. Thank you for the video
Oh yes please!
Jazzles77 What A Great Idea.. Sounds Delicious!
Did you try it?
Jazzles77 vegan much ❤️
Jazzles77 if you tried this please let me know if it works would defo be a good vegan substitute
when I was child even in Italy they use to make same sweets on a marble table. ciao
Old is gold, that how they did during they childhood time. Nice to share it us. May God bless u dear.
There is a candy in México called jamoncillo. Is made with this similar process and its delicious! It's a soft milky candy the melts in your mouth.
So I'm wondering... Is this a chewy toffee or is hard and crunchy like what I would call an English toffee?? Very much enjoyed the video
This is the best so far 😋😋😋😋
Yummy 😋
I love caramel I don't like chocolate but give me caramel makes me the happiest person in the world
Me too!!!❤
Nice to know someone else doesn’t like chocolate.
Jamie Ferrie
It's candy, but It does taste like caramel
Jamie Ferrie , silly rabbit; google caramel, only missing the butter.
Jamie Ferrie, ok now u’re not a silly rabbit, u’re a dumb bunny...same ingredients, cook much?
My grandma was a great teacher and THIS was one of her favorite things to teach us. She called it milk pillows:)
hey there, since you mentioned you've had these, I was wondering if these candies soft or hard?
R Saleh The way she taught, it made the consistency like...dried caramel? It’s chewy, but “melts” like a butter mint would I guess. They’re definitely not “hard” if cooked slowly. That’s the key-slow and low!!!
Mannnnn!!!! That’s a heck of a question lol It never occurred that I’d have to describe it some day LoL
Thanks!!!
Watch the way he cuts it with his knife. You can see the consistency by how hard he has to press
Have to take my teeth out to eat that...LOL
You are too funny.
That sticky taffy type Candy WILL take UR teeth out for U !
😂 LoL
lol ME TOO! And it would be worth it. Lord have mercy.
I SUCK ON MINE,I HAVE TEETH AND WANT TO KEEP THEM 😆
This is called "yema" in the philippines. ❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭
I use condensed milk to make ice cream but the recipe is always minus one spoon (in the chef 👩🍳) lol 😂
My mother made this for us but added peanut butter. It is the best
Geraldine Pebdani ...how much peanut butter?
How much peanut butter please, thank you, sounds wonderful😁
I make this, mix in some peanut butter and swirl it through brownies. SOO good
This reminds me of a simple tootsie roll w/o the preservatives,
I love the creativity! I would never have thought to cook sweetened condensed milk like this, but it makes delicious looking caramel candy! Thank you for sharing!
Love from GH 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭 continue to promote these gospel worship songs ♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💕😘💞
We used to make this way back in the 80 's when I was a kid. 😁 thanks for the video.
This looks so good, guess I'll be making candy tomorrow for me and my granddaughters 😁😁👩🍳👩🍳
With some pieces of prune, or shredded coconut or peanuts pieces, yum!, also add some vanilla to the candy and it will taste like dulce de leche 😋😋
Makes me think of Cow Tails, the candy.
Was just thinking that....then wondering how to make the cream inside so I can make my own homemade tails :D
I thought of cow tails also 😁
Love Cow Tails, the caramel colored ones. The chocolate is pretty good, though.
NEVER HEARD OF COWTAILS I
They are long caramels in vanilla and chocolate ones, too and they have this cream center that is really neat because they cream is cool when you bite into it and makes a good foil for the caramel. The reason they are called cow tails is because they are long and round like cows' tails.
I'd add a teaspoon of vanilla right before it start to come together.
Maybe use butter so it would have a buttery flavor and more of a vanilla caramel..
Just a thought..🤗
Can you give me your recipe with the butter and vanilla. This video had zero instruction and the only ingredient it showed was the can of milk. I'm guessing that clear liquid in the pan was oil? No directions were provided. Maybe it should be simple but I am a direction follower. Yours sounds better.
Thank God I'm not married to you! You would kill me quickly with diabetes....😅😅😅
That actually sounds great!
Lajuana Longoria go to another channel for that recipe
Lajuana Longoria underneath the post she wrote 2 tablespoons of oil and one can of condensed milk it’s not exactly a difficult recipe to follow it didn’t have more than 2 ingredients so there’s not much to follow pour the oil in pan pour the condensed Milk and stir until it caramelises and comes together and then shape really not that difficult and not something you need a recipe book or step by steps for its common sense
Never thought you could do this but thanks! Ive got to try this 😀 An update : I have done this twice. The first time, I tried mixing chocolate in it near the end but it didn’t turn out well at all . The chocolate doesn’t work with it. It turns the whole thing into a big mountain of crumbs. I highly advise never to do that. Second time I did it again without chocolate and it turned out wonderful!!! So delicious! My family loves it too much and wishes to have it often. I’ll see about that because it does take a lot of time and patience for me, unless I can get another person to take turns in mixing with me! Thanks for the idea 💡 one more thing, use butter and coconut oil instead of plain oil. Adds more flavor 🙂
After it has hardened I would dip part of it in melted chocolate.
Isca S you know, that just might be the only way. Still it can’t be mixed into chocolate so it would only be chocolate covered. I didn’t think of that but thanks. I may try that 😉
You can try mixing in several teaspoons of cocoa powder at the beginning of process. This should do the trick, and add more taste and delightful bitterness to this super sweet recipe.
Mmm, looks good. How would these be if they were rolled in powdered sugar?
Hershey's dark cocoa powder
@@nancyjeanschempp785 oh Nancy you clever minx! I'm going to have to try that!
OMG YESSS
This is also how you make "Dulce de Leche" - easily.
I thought of Dulce too when I saw this. But....
Dulce de Leche can be made even more easily than this.
Put the closed tin in a pot with boiling water, let simmer gently for about 2 hours and that's it.
As an added bonus, you don't get oil (= extra fat) in your dulce. Though I'm not sure my dulce will harden out and turn into candy. It stays softer, it's a thick, creamy syrup you can pour over desserts or cakes.
I will give this method a try and see if I can make some of that candy.
@@stonytina01will-not-be-ban78 That's exactly how you make it. 👍
Yum,yum.I have never dared try the in the can dulce de leche I imagine an explosion !
Joan Fordham I'm a chef of 20 years.....and it doesn't explode. Made it literally thousands of times over the decades. You can also do it in the crock pot, in the can. It obviously takes a lot longer. Lol
@@HeatherMaderArt It's a dilemma... "do I go for a quick-fix, instant consumer gratification recipe or do I go for the lazy-ass, 2-hours of being a couch-potato approach?" XD
Best and Easiest candy making i ever saw.will definitely try it.
What temperature do you have the stove on? It sounds so good and would love to try and make it. 😁
I never knew you could make candy from condensed milk! Awesome! I’ve actually boiled an unopened can, when you open it....it’s a delicious caramel sauce for pies, cakes and ice cream. Thanks for sharing, I’m definitely gonna try this.
Bless you. I would have been eating it as I worked!
Thank you so much for sharing...🧡👍🏽😊
Hi @Mavis D. , I'm new to your channel, and I really enjoyed your video. I have a couple of questions. What setting do you have the stove burner on while you're heating the mixture? Also, I noticed you added a small amount of liquid periodically while heating. Was that more oil, or water? Thank you for sharing this! 😊💜
For about 30 yrs I've made caramel out of Sweetened Condensed Milk in the microwave... its perfect for dipping pretzels and apples.
How do u make that?
How do you do it in the Micro? I boil mine in the can in water.
@@danelda47 Thank You
Please share with me as well. zelia@telkomsa.net
Karma moksha, is it okay to put metal can in the microwave? I thought that caused a big disaster! Maybe they’ve improved microwaves?
That is great idea. Thank you for sharing this
THANKS FOR SHARING! I know it has to be good because I can eat Condensed Milk straight out of the can. SERIOUSLY! Good stuff! :)
Add pecans to it it becomes at pecan roll
Debbie Macias ...sounds good
How long do you think it took to cook??? She did not speak so it's hard without much instructions.
@@brisahernandez3022 it takes an hour depends on heat
Thankyou debbie🤗
@Brenda Jarmusz I did not say she did a bad job ok . Since she did not speak to say the times and measures we dont know , and no she did not put that up there to see ok. Thanks
As I watch this I am Italian I felt like I was in my grandmothers kitchen washer is making her for us the music reminded me of her I love it
Have you ever tried adding condensed milk to sugar toffee?? Eg: White Sugar + Water let sugar dissolve then add condensed milk?
I haven’t but am keen on trying a small batch to see what becomes of it.
Let me know the results. I liked a candy called parrys when I was small. Want to recreate it.
Those that talking trash , clearly you don’t know what it is until you taste it 💯
Life With T lol don’t comment if u have no constructive criticism to give
What is that that they put in the beginning of the video?
@@tranthucanh6462 looked like cooking oil.
tiffany what did Life with T say wrong. She said it was great pretty much
This recipe it’s way much better if u used butter instead of vegetable oil😜
that oil looked gross
Looks wonderful and sweet! Love Carmel anything. Ty
Thank you! I have been searching how these candies where made. Ate them when we were young in South and Central America. I knew from the taste it had to be dulce de leche based. Now I am happy, thank you.🥰🤗
Yummy! Nothing like good old fashion home made food made from scratch. The best and none of the junk from factory made food.
Reminds me a bit of a Brazilian candy I used to make, but that was flavored with chocolate and made into little balls rolled in chocolate sprinkles. I wonder how this would be if you substituted butter for the oil? That sweetened condensed milk is amazing stuff for making sweets. Thanks for sharing
Brigadeiros?
C. A. Yes. I have a friend from Brazil who loves them but insists she can’t make them
@@FrancesWeyr Brigadeiros candy are so pretty, but soo sweet.
C. A. Isn’t that the whole point of candy?🙂
@@FrancesWeyr yes...😊
We call this"YEMA"here in the philipines😊
Thank you for sharing, it's great to learn our favourite things in other languages.
@@terriatca1 what does this taste like
@@tisonly143 Chewy, sweet caramel.
That’s what I thought it was too “Yema” but any dessert made from condensed milk is delicious lol
I actually remembered earlier that my dad once cooked this for me on a stormy night to distract me from the terrifying thunders and then this vid was on my recommendation thank you!!
Aww. ❤
All week I've been thinking about making this for the first time for my son but been been to tired lol but my mommy used to make this for us cause we were poor so she get a of this and bam her kids had 🍬😢 rip mommy 💔
If when you take it off the heat a pull it which it just stretching and folding it over itself it gets air into it and makes a nice texture like taffy ...the way you did it we call Cow Tails which are yummy caramel ropes...I love making this it reminds me of being a kid when there was no money to buy candy from a store !
It's Caramel chews! The same thing happens when you take condensed milk and boil it in the can itself!
No no when you boil milk it's call confiture de lait or in english jam milk but when you fry it milk become chewy that's different!
Minnebaud Carina a boil it in the can to make caramel
Minnebaud Carina it definitely turns into caramel in the can when sat in boiling water
Pls dont cook stuff in the cans they come in if you dont need to lol
@@bigbagtv4058 How long do you boil it for?
Wouldn’t it taste better with butter instead of oil?
Try it both ways and let us know what you think. I’d be anxious to hear.
She/he used the oil to help condensed milk not to stick into the pan I guess..
And also you can use butter. For me it tastes better. 🤗
Jag mmm good idea. The possibilities are endless with this gooey goodness lol.
I'm on that
😎👍 "CANDY " 🍬 l have to try this RECIPE ! Thank you for sharing.😊👍👍👍👍👍🍬🍬 (So easy to do ) 😎👍👍👍👍
We call that fudge, add peanuts or raisin. My brother's (4) request instead of birthday or Christmas gifts. Homemade love!
I am do making this and 4 my family add a little peanut butter or almond butter!!Yummy!
Gotta love all those yummy black pieces that begin mixing in around 1:20 and just keep ongoing. Did I miss a special spice or is that just a lot of delicious cancer causing Teflon...mmh mmh
I'm going to make this and add butter and molasses and roll it in pecans.
That sounds awesome!!!
How do we do that? My daughter would LOVE to make your recipes too!!
@@klaritydawn Melt 1/2 stick of butter in the pan, add 1/2 cup molasses, complete the recipe as usual, let cool a bit,while still warm roll into a log and then roll it over whole pecans. : )
Dwight pepper! You Indulgent Individual!!! 😁
@@damianayre2130 You've just given me the best Christmas present!! I've been looking for an easy way to make pecan rolls and I'm about to try this one. Merry Christmas to you and yours from Canada!
Wow that looks really good, thank you for sharing and God bless you...
Try this with the maple milk.... it's so good..I love the plain milk better
My Daddy grew up during the depression and served in WWII. His favorite sweet to eat was sliced bread with condensed milk on it. He loved it!!!!
My mum used to do me condensed milk on bread. I used to love it. I'm a seventies kid.
Thank you for the reminder...my mouth is drooling. Mama called it homemade caramels...and we had to be especially good for her to make it.
Wow, just lovely and I smiled the whole time watching.
You can put the whole can in a pan with water, cover it and boilit for about 3 hours and have homemade caramel. But you have to make sure the can remains covered. I do that and spoon over ice cream
My mom used to do that. I couldn't remember how long it had to boil. Thank you!
So what do you cover the can with and so you also put a lid on the pan you have water in?
You can put the can in the oven and bake it too. I imagine you could also use a crock pot.
if you use a pressure cooker it only takes 45 mins
Gotta be careful. I just read a post where the can exploded. Thankfully nobody was hurt.. but the ceiling 😳
Wow, we can learn something new everyday ❤️❤️❤️TO GOD BE THE GLORY GOD 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
God hss nothing to do with condensed milk.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!!!
@@7531monkey Oh yes He dose!
JESUS IS LORD JESUS IS LORD love SATAN!
Why does someone always have to bring their god into it?
Here in Brazil, they add chocolate powder to the condensed milk, chill and roll into balls= brigadeiros.
How good would that be with coconut and/or pecans? Maybe peanuts or cashews would be delish too. I wonder if you could replace the veg oil with coconut oil.
Or maybe butter?
great video. I can almost taste the deliciousness you made!!!
neat video!
I apologize for seeming like a wet blanket, but please be careful of having music playing. It can put you at risk of a copyright takedown.
Yeah! Especially when anybody that had anything to do with it is most likely dead!🙄
The video is about the candy not the music! Duh!
Hmm... this looks like caramel, but it's so easy to make. I'll make some today and see how it turns out. Thanks for this recipe!
Thanks for the history lesson Carmine. I always wondered why my parents used to serve condense milk in our tea instead of full cream milk. my parents were born around world war two 1930-1040's
So simple. Thank you for upload.
