Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C. Combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and ¼ cup of water in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a brisk simmer. Swirl occasionally without stirring, until pale amber; carefully pour into an 8 × 8in / 20 × 20cm glass baking dish and tilt to coat the base and sides.
- Blend 397g of sweetened condensed milk, 3 large eggs, 2 cups of whole milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until combined. Pour over the caramel.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, until firm and browned. Cool, then refrigerate until cold; scoop from the dish.
