Thick, sweet and creamy Keto and low carb version of sweetened condensed milk!
This low carb version of sweetened condensed milk is super easy to make and really tastes amazing! I use it to make fudge, but there are many other uses for it. You can put it in your coffee, tea, protein shakes, drizzle over fresh berries or use in making popsicles!
Before I switched to Keto, I used to make fudge using the sweetened condensed milk in the can. I really like the sweetness and consistency it gives the fudge, so I made this specifically to use in my Almond Joy Fudge, Cranberry Walnut Crumble Bars and my No-Bake Chocolate Raspberry Tart.
I cannot take credit for the idea, it was inspired by the recipe from My Montana Kitchen (thank you!!) I really love my version and truth be told, I could eat it with a spoon straight from the jar, it’s that good!
How to Make Keto Sweetened Condensed Milk
Ingredients
2 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup swerve confectioners
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
Add all of the ingredients, except the vanilla extract to a medium saucepan.
Simmer on low heat for 20-30 minutes or until thickened and reduced by almost half. Mine took exactly 28 minutes. Be sure to stir often and don’t walk away from it. The mixture will thicken further as it cools.
Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract . Allow to come to room temperature, then store in the fridge for 5-7 days.
When you are ready to use it in a recipe that calls for Sweetened Condensed Milk, pop in the microwave for 6-8 seconds and it will loosen up perfectly! Or add a tiny bit of hot water and stir!

This looks fairly simple and extremely delicious. I will try this one day soon so I can make the fudge recipe you shared.
Awesome, let me know how you like it! I used most of mine on the fudge recipe, but had a little left over to dip into. It’s good stuff 🙂
