View all comments (12)Hi me again - tried the banana and that was a hit and made the tart a much lighter option - that squeezy caramel is fab and could be used as a topping for ice cream - well worth trying
You can now buy carnation caramel in a squeezy bottle - made small tarts (ready bakes by M&S) and squeezed over the caramel then added a topping of melted chocolate too rich. Either cream or chocolate flake crumbled over would be better - I will try the banana as that would be like banoffee pie.
boil a few cans of condensed milk at the one time and save fuel I use whipping or double cream and then crumble a flake over the top.
You cannot whip single cream I think you mean whipping cream
you can now buy carmel flavour condensed milk why boil
Very time consuming, not at all eco-frendly (boil for 2 hours)but nice to eat
Wow that's great, I didn't know you could get caramel from boiling condensed milk! Could do so much with this, add apple or banana. I've just gone and bought both books, can't wait to see more recipes. Thanks girls.
brilliant fun
also put some rosted nuts - very nice!!!
Wow what an amazing recipe straight from the stoneages...cant i pleaase just buy a tin of caramel instead of boiling a tin for 2hours and risking an explosion of condensed proportions?
Try adding sliced bananas to this tart!
