I made this for my husband’s birthday pie he loved it so much, and so did all the guests. It was well worth the 3hrs to make this pie.

I can't believe how easy it is to make caramel! Nexy time, I would make two cans, instead of one because it really is the best part. I boiled the can on its side on the low setting of an electric hot pot and it turned out perfect.

This is a great easy recipe, lay the unopened can on its side and boil for 3 hours, turns out perfect.

When it comes to the flavor, it's DELICIOUS! But the caramelized milk didn't harden like the picture shown, it was all runny! but who cares it tasted good :)

This was way too sweet for me, but my husband loved it - so I'll have to say this is a winner. I'd never had Dulce De Leche before, so I didn't know what to expect. He, on the other hand, loves it and that's why he loved this pie. I boiled the can for 3 hours fully submerged and had no issues with it.

This was just okay. It was very runny and VERY sweet. Too sweet. I did boil the can for 3 hours and it was completely covered with water the whole time. I will not make this agian.

Took this to a dinner party and it was a huge success. Had no problem with the condensed milk - I did cover it in the pan, boiled for three hours, and voila - caramel!

This pie was very good. If you can't stand the clattering sound of the can boiling, lay it on its side. Next time, I'll use two cans of condensed milk because the caramel was everybody's favorite part.

Fantastic recipe, and so easy to make. Admittedly it does take a little while to cook the caramel, but it is so worth it. As other reviewers have suggested, using ready made caramel makes cooking this pie a breeze. The only thing I have altered is the crust, I don't like biscuit crusts so I cut up a sponge cake and lined a pie dish with it. Works a treat! Will definitely make again.

I love this Pie. I used this pie as a refrence since i had most of it down by heart. I do use a regular pie crust instesd of the grahm cracker. But over all a wonderful tasty pie. I recomend. :]

I make a very similar recipe, and you can buy the condensed milk already caramalized in the can in the mexican/latin foods section in most grocery stores. MUCH MUCH easier this way! I whip one of these pies up in no time this way.

After reading another review, I flipped my can over every time I added more water to my pot. Very good and very rich!

A similar recipe is known as Banoffi (or Banoffee) pie in the UK and was reputedly created at the Hungry Monk restaurant in Jevington, East Sussex in 1971. Their recipe requires the condensed milk to be boiled fully submerged for 5 hours. Originally it was served on a pastry crust. However I use digestive biscuits crushed and mixed with butter for the base, which I assume is similar to the graham base in US, but I don't cook this - simply cool in fridge before topping with the dulce and bananas. 3/4 pint cream is whipped with 1tsp sugar and 1/2tsp instant coffee. p.s. in UK pre-made dulce de leche is now available by the maker of a popular brand of condensed milk.

Yum!

Great easy recipe! I submerged the can in boiling water and kept the can covered with water the whole 3 hours and it came out perfect!

So the final product wasn't too bad, but making it became a disaster! I followed the directions and put the condensed milk in a sauce pan and filled it with water half way up the can and boiled it for 3 hrs...well I ended up with half a can of dark carmel (over cooked) and half a can condensed milk. I tried putting it all in a saucepan and mixing it all together and that worked somewhat. It was burned in some places, but I still served it! Everyone said it tasted fine, but it could have been better, my suggestion...boil can in water with can completely submerged, and only boil for 2-2and 1/2 hrs. That might work better.
