Dulce de Leche - CARAMEL in a Can!!!! Sweets in Costa Rica


One of my FAVORITE tastes in the world is CARAMEL!!  When I got to McDonald's to get a Caramel Sundae I ask for EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA Caramel - a layer of Caramel, a little ice cream & more caramel on top!!!

If you're used to YUMMY North American or European Sweets•Desserts, you don't come to Costa Rica (heck, from what I've experienced or heard from others, Latin America in general overall) for the sweets, desserts or pastries. 

BUT - one thing I've found they've done right (based on MY taste buds) is . . .
DULCE DE LECHE!!
aka - CARAMEL in a CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



WHAT IS DULCE DE LECHE?
It looks like they've basically taken a can of Sweet & Condensed Milk (I THINK that's called Leche Condensada) & cooked it for a long time which turned it into Caramel - for the SAME PRICE!!


For those of you CRAVING Caramel but don't have Dulce de Leche near you, here's a recipe to make it yourself:
