Grab the can of sweetened condensed milk, and put it in the top of a bain-marie/double boiler (simmering water in the bottom) for 1-2 hours, to make dulce de leche. Then remove it from the heat and let it cool. If you prefer, you can use a similar size can of store bought dulce de leche. If you do, make sure to heat it up in a saucepan over low heat before proceeding with the next steps.
