I had a friend tell me you could make a fantastic dip this way, but never tried it. I have seen a lot of talk lately on Pinterest about this and decided it was time to try. This was awesome! literally. We dipped apples in it, and now I am going to toss popcorn with it and make a great snack!
Ingredients
1 Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT a pop-top can)
Water
Instructions
- Remove paper label from can.
- Place Sweetened Condensed Milk in crock-pot.
- Place enough water in crock-pot to submerge can completely.
- Cook on low for 8 hours.
- Remove can and let cool completely. This is important as the contents can explode.
- Dip in apples or your favorite fruit.

Oh wow! So simple. If I don’t use all the condensed milk I bought for making fudge, I’m so making this!!! Thanks Katie.
It is interesting that the recipe says remove lable…and the can in the photo has it on! I am sure it tastes good either way.
I didnt think of taking the label off when I put it in the crock-pot. But when I removed it and it was half tore off on one side, I thought that I probably should of taken it off. It works either way…just depends on how much of a mess you want to deal with. lol!
I remember doing this as a kid with my 2nd mom! Only she did it on the stovetop in a sauce pan….YUMMY!!!!!
I’ve done this and put 3 cans in the crockpot. As long as the cans are unopened, they will keep for quite some time in the pantry after they’ve been cooked. I read that somewhere and then I tried it. Cook once and indulge now and later!
Would this work cooked outside of the can? I worry about the high Bpa levels these cans leach into food when exposed to higher temperatures. Thanks!!
I am not sure. Might be worth trying. You would need it in a sealed container. maybe a jar with a lid?
