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

WOW! I have made many custard pies, but this one was absolutely the best I have ever eaten. My family raved about it. It is so velvety and creamy. It's easy to make too. I'm adding it to my own collection of recipes--might add a couple of other herbs to satisfy our personal tastes, but on its own merits, it's the greatest recipe I've found to date...sorry grandma!
