The traditional way starts with fresh milk: 4 liters + 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda. Bring to a boil, then add 1 kg (2 lb) of sugar. Mix, and let boil until it starts to take color. At this point, mix with a wooden spoon continuously until it thickens…
I did it that way several times until I decided that the condensed milk way was liberating, and besides it tasted really good.

I’ve also seen recipes for punching holes in the top of a can, putting it inside a saucepan with some water, and simmering for several hours. So I think cooking in the can is a fairly standard practice.
