Homemade Condensed Milk
A coffee fudge popsicle recipe asked for condensed milk that I didn't have on hand, but I did have a few cans of evaporated milk sitting in the pantry. Then I made my very first condensed milk, it came out surprisingly delicious, and those coffee fudge popsicles were absolutely the best on this planet.

Directions
In a medium saucepan, add evaporated milk and sugar, stirring constantly, and bring to a boil.
Allow to boil for about 15 minutes until mixture is thickened, stirring constantly in this whole process to prevent from burning on the bottom.
Remove from heat and ready to use in your recipe.
Note: I actually boiled it for about 30 minutes until it became slightly caramelized, then I used it right away while it was still hot. I got about 1 cup of condensed milk.
If you do not use it right after you make it, it will be harden when it cools down. So later you need to reheat it, when you prepare to use this homemade condensed milk in your dessert.
