Ingredients to make Milk Candies for Halloween:
- ½ can of condensed milk
- 1 cup powdered milk
- food coloring
How to make Milk Candies for Halloween:
- Put the condensed milk in a container, add the powdered milk and mix with a spoon.
- When the mixture of condensed milk and powdered milk begins to thicken, mix it with your hands until you get an easy-to-mold paste like the one in the image.
- Tip: If the mixture is too smooth, add a little more powdered milk. If it’s too hard, add a little more condensed milk or whole milk.
- Separate the pieces of dough and shape as follows:
- Form a ball of dough
- Put the ball on a plate and flatten it slightly.
- Squeeze the ball on the sides and fix it with your fingers so that it looks like a skull head.
- Trick: Grease the plate in which you will mold the dulces de leche, to prevent it from sticking to the plate and crumbling when it is released.
- Place the skulls on a plate with powdered milk and draw the faces of the skull with the food coloring and a toothpick. In this case, we use black and green food coloring, but you can use other ingredients that we indicate below.
- Tip: Outline the faces of the skulls with a dry toothpick, so that the coloring settles in these outlines and does not drip. It is better to use gel food coloring.
- After decorating, your Halloween candy canes will be ready to enjoy!
