🛒 Ingredients

1 servings

1
  • 1 cup (150 g) whole milk powder
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (120 ml) very hot water
  • A pinch of fine salt (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat the water until very hot but not at a full boil.

  2. 2

    Add the milk powder, sugar, and hot water to a blender.

  3. 3

    Blend on high speed for 2–3 minutes until completely smooth and thick.

  4. 4

    Pour into a clean glass jar, let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate.

💡 Chef's Tip

For a richer result, use full-fat milk powder. If the mixture thickens too much after chilling, stir in a splash of warm water until you reach your desired consistency. Keeps for up to 2 weeks in the fridge.
