directions

  • Place the evaporated milk and the condensed milk in your heaviest pot.
  • Add the cinnamon sticks, baking soda and a pinch of salt.
  • Stir steadily with a wooden spoon or heat-proof spatula so that the mixture does not stick to the bottom of the pan and burn.
  • Adjust the temperature so that the mixture stays just barely at a simmer.
  • Continue to stir until the mixture is making large bubbles, is very thick, and is a golden caramel color. It's very important to stir constantly at this point to prevent burning.
  • Lift the spoon out of the pot and drizzle some of the caramel sauce over the surface. If it forms a ribbon that does not disappear after 10 seconds or so, it is ready.
  • Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Remove cinnamon sticks and stir in the vanilla and the corn syrup.
  • Let cool completely.
