This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

YUMMMMMMMMMMMM!!! I added vanilla extract to the oatmeal mix for a little extra flavor. This one's definitely a keeper!
