Sandra Lee cupcake recipe

[mommy42]

So, I found this recipe online after watching an episode of Sandra Lee's Semihomemade. I couldn't find the can of dulce de leche in the store. Does anyone know of a good substitution for it? Or, those with Albertsons, Safeways and Smiths know if it is carried in the stores? Thanks in advance!!!
It looks really good and easy to make if I can just figure out how to get that ingredient or a sub for it.

Thanks!!! I went to a different grocery store today and found the canned stuff so I was super happy. But thanks for taking the time to find and post for me.
Of course, I forgot to buy the cake mix!! Lol!! I'll have to go back to the store one of these days.
I'll let you know how they turn out.

If you have a pressure cooker, I've heard you can also make it in one of those too. You can see the recipe and steps at this web site:

I haven't tried it myself though, to know how it would compare to some of the other methods - but I'm guessing part of the reason you are having trouble finding it is because there are a number of easy and inexpensive ways to make it yourself from canned condensed milk.

I'm curious though, since you mentioned you found it in your store - was it much more than a regular can of condensed milk?

Sorry - I don't remember how much it was; or if it was more than the regular. :0
I was just so excited to find it that I didn't pay attention to the price!! LOL
I don't have a pressure cooker.
Just glad to have found it at the store.
I'll let everyone know - once I get a chance to make them - how they turn out.
Thanks for the suggestions.
