That sounds great as well.Looks and sounds awesome!! We used to boil cans of SCM and then dip Nilla wafer In the warm caramel. Declious!

Thanks a lot! Great idea with the apples. Gonna do that!Hawg that looks evil good! Slice some Granny Smiths to go with it!
Thanks! I too had not made them in years. I forgot what I was missing. Fun and easy to make and everyone loves them.Hawgin, I have not had one of those pies in a long time...you just prompted me to make some! Big Like!
I will guarantee she will. Who knows, you might like it. LOL!Looks good Hawg, I'm not a big dessert eater but I think my wife would like this one.
Point for sure

Thank you Al. To be totally honest, I am not a huge desert eater either. However, I do like fresh homemade fruit pies like peach and apple, with a huge scoop of Blue Bell vanilla ice cream on top. This caramel pie is over the top and so simple to make.I'm not a big dessert guy, but I'd be all over that!!

Thanks Gary! It's so simple. The pie is incredible! Give it a shot!Never heard of boiling cans of condensed milk--new one on me. But it sure sounds good, so I'll be trying this soon.

50 gallons!! Holy Crap!! Thanks for sharing that it can be frozen. Probably going to make several. Freeze a few and give away the others. Happy New Year!!!i was working on a project that caramelizing the sweetened condensed milk and then pouching it to eliminate the need for the individual stores cooking #10 cans of sweetened condensed milk for hours to make this. Received a 50 gallon drum of sweetened condensed milk to caramelize in a large steam jacketed kettle and then pouch up. I had pouches of this stuff forever. Every party I attended I made this for. The high sugar content will allow for it to be frozen and still cut easily.
I don't have one of those. Maybe?? I never felt it was difficult boiling the cans in a big pot. Let us know if that works for you. Happy New year!Do you think you could boil the cans in a sous vide bath? It would be easier than boiling for sure.

Thanks. I'll stick with the SCM. It has worked for me for 20+ years. I have plenty of time and the rattling cans don't bother me as I am hard of hearing.While I have never made a pie with boiled SCM I thought it should be mentioned that what the OP is turning the SCM into is called dulce de leche, or Cajeta as mentioned above. Dulce de leche is normally available a shelf or two away from the regular SCM and Cajeta is often available in the Mexican/Latin food section of your local grocery. Not sure if the thickness of home made dulce is different than the store bought stuff but it may be a time saving shortcut to just buy it.
Also if you place the cans of SCM on their sides they don't rattle as bad while cooking.
