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

reviews & comments
I tried this recipe but it wouldn't get done in the middle, instead it burned on the outside with the inside raw. I'm wondering if the date/water mixture should have been drained? I c water with on l l/2 c flour might be the problem. I ended up by tossing the semi/burned cake out.
