This rich sauce, similar to dulce de leche, makes a tempting topping for Dr. Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell's Cinnamon Rolls.

Yield Makes about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 cups goat's milk
3 cups sugar
3 vanilla beans, split, or 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • In a large (6-quart) heavy bottomed saucepan, bring milk to a boil over medium-high heat. Add sugar and cook, stirring to dissolve.
  • Add vanilla beans to saucepan and bring to a simmer. In a small bowl whisk together baking soda and 1 1/2 tablespoons water until baking soda is dissolved. Reduce heat to low and add baking soda mixture to saucepan and cook, stirring constantly. If mixture begins to foam up too high, remove from heat for a moment until foam goes down.
  • Cook, stirring every 15 minutes or so, until mixture turns brown and is thickened and reduced to 3 cups, 6 to 8 hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and let cool slightly.

This sauce was a bit too runny for my liking. I would recommend simmering it for longer next time.

This sauce is so easy to make and it tastes just like the cajeta sauce I used to get from my grandmother.

This sauce was a bit too thick for my liking. I would recommend adding more milk or cream.

This sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.
