The ingredients
  • 400g sugar
  • 150g condensed milk
  • 150 ml of milk
  • 75g butter
  • 1 egg


Preparation
  1. In a pot with a thick bottom, put oil, sugar and condensed milk. It is very important that the mixture does not burn, choose dishes for cooking with a thick bottom, and even better - with non-stick coating.



  2. Put the pan on a weak fire and stir the milk mixture with a silicone spatula for 15-20 minutes. When the mixture becomes a beautiful caramel color, continuously stir the mass. To check if the mixture is ready, drop it in a bowl of ice water. If the milk drop will harden and not spread, then the mixture is ready.



  3. Beat the caramel mass with a mixer until the sugar begins to crystallize. This step can be skipped and simply pour caramel into the form.



  4. Lubricate the form for caramel with vegetable oil and pour the mass. Carefully level it with a spatula in shape. Best for these purposes suitable silicone molds, forms for ice. Caramel lags well behind them.
  5. Put the Cow in the fridge for a couple of hours. Done. Take the caramel out of the mold and make the tea quick. Bon appetit.
