 1 cup of crystal sugar

 1 lemon (to curdle the milk)

 5 cloves (optional)

 1 cinnamon stick (optional)

How to make sweet dog:

In a large saucepan, add the liquid milk and add the lemon juice. Let the milk curdle for approximately 15 minutes, with the heat off.

Tip: If you want, double the recipe to prepare a larger amount of candy.

Add sugar, cloves and cinnamon. Simmer over medium heat until boiling, so the milk picks up the taste of these spices.

Lower the heat and stir from time to time. It will release the whey, but as it cooks, the syrup will thicken.

Keep stirring occasionally until the candy changes color. It will have a darker color and a thicker syrup. Turn off the heat and serve the candy in a compot.

 Tip: The time to reach the sweet spot can vary from 30 to 40 minutes.

This candy can be served warm or cold! Enjoy this wonderful dessert with sour milk and let us know what you think in the comments. Enjoy your food!
