Ingredients
Graham Cracker Crust
1½cupsgraham crackers, finely crushed
⅓cupbutter, melted
3Tablespoonssugar
Filling
28ouncessweetened condensed milk, 2 (14 ounce cans), use brand with a pop top lid
In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar.
Mix until well combined.
Spread in an 8 inch pie tin that has been lightly greased.
Bake pie crust for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
Filling
Place the two unopened cans of sweetened condensed milk in a pot and cover completely with water.
Place the lid on top of the pot, and bring to a boil.
Boil the can's in the water for 3 hours on medium high heat.
Be sure they are completely covered with water for the whole 3 hours.
Check on them occasionally and add water if needed. (Weird I know. The paper on the can will fall off, or you can take it off ahead of time. I took mine off ahead of time so I wouldn't have to deal with the mess.)
Drain the water, and take out the cans wearing hot pads. The cans are extremely hot.
Open the can's and poor them on top of the graham cracker crust. (Cans will be hot, and they have built up pressure so they will pop when you open them! Open with something covering your hands so you don't get burned! We used oven mitts and pliers to open the pop top lid. The caramel inside can squirt out and is very hot, so open it facing away from you).
If you would like, you can slice banana's and put them on top of the caramelized sweetened condensed milk, then put whipped topping on top of that. (I like it without banana's but if you need to sneak some fruit in for your kids, this is a sneaky and delicious way to do it).
Then put on the whipped topping and refrigerate until cooled.
