  4. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, pour liquid into the well, whisk until just blended.
  5. Pour into greased pan, tapping to remove air bubbles.
  6. Bake @ 350F for 30 to 40 minutes (or until tester comes out clean).
Icing:
  1. on top of a double boiler, or carefully on direct heat at a low to medium boil, simmer the entire can of sweetened condensed milk until it thickens and turns the colour of caramel. Use a whisk to stir continuously. Don’t worry if you get some burn bits, They are caramelized sugar.
  2. Once cake has cooled, spread the faux “dulche de leche” icing on top.

Notes

  • Here is a video of how to make this icing/topping either in the pan, or within the can. My mom used to do this all the time in a can in her pressure cooker, and yes I have had the can explode so be careful…
