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

Part of CDKitchen's 2005 Thanksgiving Menu. This recipe probably received the most rave reviews of anything on our menu. Not exactly heart-healthy, but neither is its traditional sweet potato marshmallow casserole counterpart. The oranges kept the flavor from being overly sweet making this a very enjoyable side dish to our meal. It's also an extremely easy dish to prepare.
