Well, the answer is because it's SOOOO sweet and addictive..
BUT, if you're looking to make this decadent stuff to spread on or within a cake, to dip fruits in, or to eat straight out of the can (I won't judge,) here is an easy recipe you can follow. Just make sure you have time to keep a watchful eye on this.
Ingredients1 can of sweetened condensed milk
Directions
Remove label from can of sweetened condensed milk. Drop in deep pot of water. Let simmer/light boil on its side for 2-1/2 to 3 hours. Turn off heat, drain water and let can sit out for 6+ hours before you open it.
My advice is to boil 2 or 3 cans at once because it does use up burner electricity. You can store unopened cans away for a few weeks, so why not?
Caution! DO NOT open after boiling. If you open can too early you will risk burning yourself. Also, DO NOT let the water in the pot boil off. Add water from time to time to make sure can(s) are fully submerged. Not doing this will cause the can to explode if the water boils off.
Happy Carameling!
Enjoy!
