Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started on creating these scrumptious Homemade Milky Way Bars! First, begin by lining your baking pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal later on. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup, butter, and water over medium heat. Stir the mixture until everything is dissolved and bubbling, which should take about 3-4 minutes. Once that’s done, you’ll want to remove it from the heat and add in the sweetened condensed milk along with the vanilla extract, stirring it to combine. The sweet aroma will fill your kitchen, and I can never resist sneaking a taste! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
