Cajeta/Mexican Caramel

For as long as I can remember, my family has made this caramel for us, and it is so freaking delicious! It is the easiest recipe ever, and it only calls for one ingredient! It doesn't last long in our house! 
Ingredient:
  • Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
Directions:
  1. Grab your largest pot & fill it 3/4 full of water.
  2. Tear off the paper on the can of sweetened condensed milk.
  3. Place the can into the pot of water. Make sure it is completely submerged! You can lay it on its side if you want. (It will explode if it isn't fully submerged in water the whole time!)
  4. Turn the burner on medium-high heat and cook for two hours. 
  5. Every thirty minutes to an hour, check to make sure there is enough water. Add water if needed. 
  6. After two hours, turn the heat off. Drain the water and leave the can in the pot to cool.
  7. Once it is completely cooled, serve it on toast or with fruit or by the spoonful.
  8. Keep the cajeta/caramel refrigerated.
  9. Enjoy!
