crock pot notes
Crock pots/slow cookers all heat differently. There is no standard among manufacturers. Cooking times are suggested guidelines based on our testing. Please adjust cooking times and temps to work with your brand and model of slow cooker.nutrition data
Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

There isn't much liquid in this so you can't cook it for eight hours! I cooked it for three hours on low and it was done. Any longer and it would have burned for sure. It's good, just don't follow the cooking time instructions!~
We LOVE this recipe --- BUT, cook it as stated in the recipe and it does burn up. I follow the recipe ingredients and measurements, and cook for 30-45 minutes (tops) in the crock pot.
Newer crockpots from certain manufacturers heat WAY too hot to use most crockpot recipes as written. You'll need to adjust the cooking time (or some users have suggested cooking on the "warm" setting to avoid burning).

Burned within 4 hours on the crockpot at low setting. Looks like Pizza tonight.
: Lemme guess - you have a newer Rival brand crockpot? The newer crocks cook WAY too hot to use for anything other than soups or a recipe that is all liquid. They are completely unusable for anything else.
