I have a secret to tell you.
I have been seeing Dulce de Leche everywhere. I am fascinated by it. The way the words look and sound and the mystery of complex flavors they tease.
I love just saying Dulce de Leche. I feel sophisticated and gourmet.
So you can image how excited I was to try it.
And how lame I felt when it just tasted like caramel.
Oh, its not Dulce de Leche’s fault. Its mine. I have a very unsophisticated palette!
But I can still run around saying it and pretending I am cool.
Anywho… I came across this coulndnotbeeasier recipe for a Dulce de Leche smoothie and had to try it!!

Thank you for making my recipe! You took pictures, right? Well go ahead and post them on Instagram! Be sure to mention me @iambaker and use the hashtag #YouAreBaker.
Can I tell you where I got this super sophisticated recipe?
Off the box of butterscotch pudding. Thank you JELL-O.
And just because I am a glutton, I added a bit more caramel to the top.
This smoothie is really thick and rich and packs a sweet punch that just might knock ya off your feet.
In a good way of course.
Have you ever had Deulce de Leche? Will you join me in just saying it at random times throughout the day? No? Thats weird? Oh.
Yeah, I knew that.
Oh, that looks good! I saw a recipe on Tastespotting for easy homemade Dulce de Leche. They put an unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a crockpot with a couple of inches of water and cooked it over night. It transformed into thick delicious looking caramel! As if sweetened condensed milk needed any help to be better…
Have a GREAT Mother’s Day weekend with your four sweet blessings!
