Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

I tried this recipe last year and now it's a Munoz Family staple! The only change I made is instead of melting the caramels - I use the caramel sundae topping on the graham cracker crust.. It's a time saver and - - simply delish!!!
