Milk Caramel

1

In a large saucepan, combine the milk and sugar

When it starts to boil, stir constantly until it thickens

The perfect point is when it reaches a firm-ball consistency

Test by placing a small amount in a cup with cold water

If you can shape it into a ball that holds its form, it's done

2

Remove from heat and beat with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and loses its shine

Then, pour the caramel onto a wet surface and cover with a damp cloth

Top with a sheet of macaroni, spreading the caramel to about 1 centimeter thickness

3

Remove the cloth and cut the mass, still warm, into diamonds

Let it cool completely and place the pieces in a jar or container

Store well sealed.
