"Just stir it for 7 hours"...what?! Haha😱

Time ago, my father was making dulce de leche (around 5 cans) and he let them boil and move to the garden, obviously he forgot it and he just heard the explosion and when he enter the whole kitchen was covered with dulce de leche, we still have the can's mark on the sealing. I took a whole day to clean it up. TOTAL MESS!! Be aware and don't be distracted! Jajajjaa Lol

Hi Jemma, I'm from Argentina! We don't make dulce de leche out of condensed milk around here. And to make it properly does not take 7 hours at all (unless you want to make a monstrous amount of it), I'll share with you my 'one hour and twenty minutes recipe': 1 litre of milk + 40g double cream + 220g sugar + 10g bicarbonate soda + medium heat to low for 1h20m.

alternatively when you go to the supermarket to buy your carnation condensed milk to make this move your hand slightly to the right and pick up a can of carnation dolce de leche instead XD

I've only just come across your channel and have now watched a couple of your videos. And I must say I have seldom ever seen someone explain things so well. It is pure delight listening to you. I have already learned tons!

Dulce de leche made from condensed milk tastes very different from the one traditionally made. It's not worse or better, it's delicious but the taste and even texture are significantly different.

im so glad zoe shouted you out! been loving your channel for a long time :)

in Mexico there is a similar candy made with goat milk. It is called "cajeta"...delicious

Оо. Вареная сгущенка :). In Russia this one of the most lovely memories from childhood. My mother used to make it as a filling for cookies or topping for waffles.

The easiest way for that we used to put the can with water in a pressure cooker just for 30 minutes only And you get the exact same result 💕

I'm from Chile, and we also eat a lot of "Dulce de Leche" but we call it "La Wea Culia Cafe"

I thought I wanna give up when she said stir it for 7 hours!! You got me there Jemma 😅😅

this stuff is to die for ... SO good I can't wait to see what you do with it next week

Oh, wow, in Russia we call it varyonnaya sgushenka - boiled condensed milk. it's really popular, there are many variants of condensed milk, condensed cream, boiled, hard-boiled (my favourite), with cocoa...

I am from Argentina and here it is a tradition eating crepes with dulce de leche and it is the most delicious combination ever! you have to try it!

I really love your ideas! You always seem to have an alternative for really fussy recipe methods

Tried this just now because I'm making Jemma's Banoffee Pie and it works like magic!! Delicious! I have a store bought Dulce de leche and it doesn't taste as good as home made one! Thanks Jemma! Love you!

Hey Gemma, I'm an Argentinian living abroad so I always have to make it from scratch. I just wanted to drop a tip: if you boil it for an extra hour ( 4h total ), you get what we call "pastry" dulce de leche. It's thicker and ideal to use as filling of cakes or between cookies (alfajores).

OH MY GOD! I was so excited when I saw this! I'm from Argentina and I watch all your videos! My cousin bought your book for me in New York because I can't find it here. You're amazing!

In Norway, we actually have a spread that is extremely similar to dulce de leche called HaPå, originally Hamar-pålegg. It actually went out of production, but a lot of people protested, so they began to produce it again. It feels great that I don't have to stir for seven hours or take care of a pot with a can in it for several hours to have some "Dulce de Leche" on my bread.

I'm from Argentina and I've loved watching you doing Dulce De Leche. We're very proud of our treasure ♥

I was scrambling for a recipe of this delicious looking sweets and you posted a recipe? Thank you very much, you're a life saver :D

I've never tried Dulce le Leche but it looks so good! Great video as always Jemma!

Woop woop!! I am from Argentina! And it is true we spread dulce de leche over everything that is sweet basically!!! You dont even wanna know how good it tastes with a chocolate sponge!!! To die for!

I would love it if you were to do a tour of the place where you bake all of these delicious foods! I've always been fascinated by the tubs behind you of all the sprinkles! 💛

I'm definitely bookmarking this video for future references. Many thanks Jemma!

Amazing simple recipe! I made it and it worked amazingly!

Finally! Looks amazing😍

just got your awesome book bc my mom went to London!! love you!!

OMG I remember days when i was eating this everyday just plain with spoon and can I LOVE IT I ADORE IT ITS LIKE CARAMEL BUT THICKER W SWEETER AND BETTER

This dulce de leche recipe looks awesome, Jemma!

I followed you from the beginning and now ur nearly at 1 million subs! wow well done. ur a fantastic personality and a great cook especially the way u do it is great for cooking noobs like me! ur work is appreciated and we can all c by ur zooming numbers in subs xxx thanks!

I love your sense of humor, I always enjoy your teaching. Quick question, how long can you keep a tin that’s cooked and where would it be best stored? 😃❤️

Hi, I enjoy watching your videos. This is the first recipe on your channel I've tried since it really was just so simple and I had a can in the cupboard. I had to leave after only 2 hours cooking so just left it in the hot water until completely cool. It came out fine still. :3

thanks Jemma!! for make dulce de leche!! I'm from Argentina and really love it ....... here we use baking soda ( one spoon) for litre, to the milk take a most caramel color, and with 3 hours is enough ( milk +sugar+ baking soda)+ a spoon of vanilla extract :) cheers!!

is it wrong to watch all of cupcake jemma's videos while you're fasting?? 😂😅 makes me kind of hungry now..

this recipe changed my life !

I'm from Argentina! Loved the video, you are amazing Jemma ❤️

i bet you'll do a banoffee pie

Dulce de Leche is also from Uruguay! A way for you to have everything mixed without being there all the time is to use little balls called "bochas" or "bolitas" inside of the mixture and let them do the job. Also, Dulce de leche is a little more darker, more like a light brown . I love your videos Jemma!

Here in Chile we eat a lot of DULCE DE LECHE we also call it MANJAR... mostly our dessert has Manjar/ dulce de leche.. Cupcakes, ice cream, eat it on pancakes, with walnut yummy or use it for filling cakes... Try to do the recipe "Manjarate" you will Love it...saludos from SANTIAGO DE CHILE🇨🇱❤️

This is pretty much my childhood treat , we used to have cookies filled with it , its been used in cakes , buns and so many other sweet things ! Im pretty sure this is not only me in Latvia , but loads of kids n grownups in Lithuania , Estonia (?) and even Russia !

It's also very popular in Poland. Knowed there by name "kajmak" since XVII century. The most popular name nowadays is "masa krówkowa" - you can buy it in any shop.

dulce de leche and peanut butter sandwich BEST PAIRING EVER ! 🙌🏻😍

Here in New Zealand, and I think in some other countries too, Nestle sell dulce de leche that has been made from condensed milk. They call it condensed milk caramel. It's right next to the condensed milk in the supermarket. It tastes amazing! Makes a good banoffee pie filling too :)

That's a really cool way to do it if you don't live in Argentina or Uruguay (or the countries where you buy dulce de leche in any supermarket). It's not exactly the same flavour as if you do it the old fashion way and the colour is a bit paler, but it's still delicious! Hope you ever come here to Buenos Aires, Jemma!

my grandpa used to make this for my mom & uncle when they went camping when they were kids, then my grandma made it to me and it's the most delicious thing in the world!!! greetings from Mexico.

I LOVE THIS!! Go Jemma!

Tried it, just the way you said. Stored it for ages and recently made your banoffee pie! Delicious 😋

Love you for saying dulce the right way. Cheers from Argentina!

I was doing the same thing when I was like 12-15 years old, my parents and grandparents did it. Not in Argentina, in the USSR actually. :) Very delicious, indeed.

I love, love, love this.....have done it many times. Have you ever mixed some in whip cream and used it as a dip for fresh fruit? ........"AMAZING" and sooooooooooo yummy. ❤️

Looking forward to see what you do with it next week. For me, it is my go to filling for macarons. I just sprinkle the caramel with a little sea salt and boom, my friends think I'm a goddess in the kitchen :)

I just found out something new today that will definitely be useful in the future. Thank you for the video :)

This is what I use when I make banoffee pie - very indulgent but oh so good!

We have this in Poland too! :D It's called "masa kajmakowa" or "kajmak" we are using it on Easter cakes or between wafles of any kind.

I just heard about you from Zoella yesterday and I'm completely obsessed!!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS Jemma you don't understand how happy i am

I just watched Gemma...now I'm watching Jemma. LOGIC.

Plz Jemma make some recipes with dulce de leche! Looove your videos!

Yay another video! thank you jemma!

Jemma! My boyfriend and I (both Argentinians) went to C&D a few weeks ago, and we wanted to meet you in person, cause we both lie cooking very much and your recipes are just fantastic! (I can't tell you how many cupcakes we've been cooking since we started following you haha). We went twice, but missed the chance by 10 minutes only! But well it happens :( Anyway, we had the Nutella-ella-ella cake.. simply one of the tastiest things we've ever eaten, by far. We talked to a girl who works there (really lovely and cheerful) and asked her to bother you with the possibility of a new video with that recipe, and well, to tell you that we love the C&D shop and that we'll eventually try going back to London and see if we can meet by chance :D Thanks a lot! PD: The raspberry bomb.. also something worthy to die for

I think I may attempt to make this. Can't wait to see what you make with this next week :D

En Chile se llama "manjar" y lo amo muchoooo. In Chile it's call it "manjar" and I love it sooooo much...

I made the most delicious caramel tarts last week, brought back so much nostalgia :)

Wooohoo! Dulce de leche rocks, love from Argentina!

omg I loved it!!!sending you a big hug from Buenos Aires 😄😘❤

In Perú it's called "manjarblanco".

PLEASE do a video making oreo red velvet cupcakes! Or just another cupcake video would be awesome those are my favorite to watch/make :)

You need to make a T-shirt that says, "If Jemma makes it... It's Gota' Be Good"

I actually use my crock pot for this! 3 or 4 cans at a time ... well covered with hot water, then turned on to High for between 5 and 6 hours .. perfection .. just like Jemma's!

I make my dulce de leche in a roasting pan. I put the can of sweetened condensed milk in a roasting pan. I cover the can with boiling water. I bake the sweetened condensed milk in the covered roasting pan at 425 degrees F. for an hour and a half, topping off with more water if needed. I let the can cool completely before opening it.

Hey Jemma! You can also do this on the pressure cooker and wait 30-45 minutes since it starts boiling and get the same results :)

❤️LOVE ALL YOUR RECIPES !!! 🌹THANKS FOR SHARING!!!

Here in Brazil its very common too, specially in Minas Gerais state, and they dont need to use condensed milk, you must come over to taste it, we eat it with fresh cheese, it's delicious

Hi, Jemma! All the Russian people knows this dessert, because in Russia you can buy condensed milk all over the place. You could eat it just from a tin can, or boiled it. We call it "varenaya zgush'onka". And its delicious! :)

I heard Soho and immediately googled your location in N.Y....😂 Oh how I wish you had a shop here. Everything you make looks like heaven!

Have never tried this, will definitely give it a go 😋

Jemma you and @zoella should definately do a baking collab it would be amazing I love you both (and cake) 😹

Here in South America a lot of us put the cans in a pressure cooker because it cuts down the time and also eliminates the need to refill the pot all the time. You’ll only have to cook it for 20 - 30 min on a low heat depending on how firm you like your doce de leite. Pro tip: if you don’t like it overly sweet, try adding a pinch of salt and the juice of half a lemon and giving it a good stir.

Here in France, we have "Milk Jam" which is pretty much the exact same thing. I can't wait to try your recipe to make my own! :)

Love that it is mess free!!!! Bet it tastes amazing.

yeeeesssss!!!! here un Argentina we have a diferents types of dulce de leche, you should come, youre gonna love it

+CupcakeJemma Thank you for all your AMAZING recipes! Just yesterday i made rainbow meringue cookies from your channel!

I used my slow cooker and left 2 tins overnight for 6hrs. After few hours of cooling down I opened one can and made my cheesecakes. So thick and delicious.

If you happen to work in an industrial kitchen with a Combi oven such as Rational Ovens you can use the Steam function and use steam to cook the condensed milk to Dulce de Leche consistency

I love it and have been doing it the same way for years. I make Golden Key cake out of it, super delicious!!!

2 liters of Milk - 4 cups of cater sugar (750)gr. Add all ingredients in a heavy large saucepan. Bring to high heat and stir for 15 minutes until boiling. Lower the heat and continue stirring for another 45 minutes until it is not sticking on the bottom of the saucepan, and becomes slightly lighter color than caramel; Remove from heat and, on an electric mixer, beat on low speed until warm.

In Brazil we use pressure cooker to make it are home (actually we usually buy cuz so cheap). Cover a can and cook it for 30 minutes in the pressure

exellent idea as a cake topping

I JUST SAT ON MY CAT!!! 😭😭😭

Thanks for the tip! Made a wonderful banoffee pie with your help.

I love how you say "Dulce de Leche" ... I grew up eating this sweet in Argentina, and it's amazing with butter on a nice piece of fresh bread... :D

In Poland it's also traditional thing and it is called "Kajmak". And you can buy it already boiled ;)

Hey! Dulce de Leche ("Doce de leite" in portuguese) is from Brazil too!! kkkkkk Actually it is from all South America (I'm Brazilian by the way) Jemma, I love your channel! It is the best!

Hi Jenna im from Argentina and i must say i was so happy when you start the video to make it in the old way (7 hours) but then you used the condensed milk and i wanna to cry haha :( it not taste the same with condensed milk.. Love your videos. X

In South Africa, we call it caramel condensed milk - ready made by Nestle and it's available in most grocery stores. Freshly made, does look delicious though.

My best friend gave me 2 cans as a present before she left for the states. I've been eating one can by myself because my brothers thought it was peanut butter. When my mom made my brother a dulce de leche sandwich last week, he put off eating it until he got home because he thought it was peanut butter again. Lo and behold, his mind was blown when he bit into the sandwich. The 2nd can didn't even last a week! Thanks for this video, I'll try to make them soon. :)

So lucky that in Argentina we buy it at the store. Delicious with anything!

Did this tonight and it worked!
