Bake in the oven at 425°F for about 45 minutes, checking the water level halfway through and adding more water if necessary.

For the boiling method, remove the label from a can of sweetened condensed milk and place it in a large pot.

Submerge the can in water by at least an inch or two.

Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
