Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 14 ounce can of unsweetened full fat coconut milk
  • ¾ cup coconut cream
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a heavy bottomed skillet or saucepan, mix together the coconut milk, coconut cream, brown sugar and sea salt.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Simmer until the sauce is reduced in half. 25-30 minutes. *see note 1
  • Allow the sauce to cool before tipping into clean jars.

Notes

  1. Some brands of coconut milk have more liquid than others, so it's a good idea to keep a close eye on your dulce de leche as it simmers.  Aim to reduce the sauce by half, but don't simmer it for so long that it's thick.  It will naturally thicken as it cools.
