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

This recipe turned out well, but I had to problem solve to make it correct. There was too much condensed milk and not enough coconut. I added another package of coconut until the mixture was thick and I was able to drop spoonfuls of the batter.
