DULCE DE ATE RECIPES

Steps:

• Wash the nail and pound it into the top of can of sweetened condensed milk to make 2 small holes on opposite sides of the top. Remove nail.
• Place the can of condensed milk into a small saucepan and pour in water to reach high up the side of the can. Bring water to a boil; reduce heat to low. Simmer milk in the can for 3 to 4 hours. Milk will slowly turn light to medium brown and become thicker as it cooks. Add more water as it boils down.
• Remove lid from can and pour dulce de leche into a bowl. Whisk to break up any lumps and mix thicker caramel from the bottom into the rest of the syrup.

Steps:

• Heat corn oil to 350° F. If you don’t have an electric deep fryer you can use a regular pot but you’ll need enough oil to fill 2 inches of the pot you're using.
• In a shallow plate combine cinnamon and sugar.
• Divide each pre-cut biscuit dough into halves. Take one half and flatten dough. Put 1 tablespoon of dulce de leche in the middle. Fold up dough, seal and roll into a ball.
• Slide doughnuts balls into hot oil with slotted spoon and fry until golden brown. Remove immediately and roll around onto the cinnamon sugar mixture.
• Let cool on a wire rack.
