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

ingredients
2 cups packed fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons pine nuts or walnuts or a combination
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
directions
Combine the basil, nuts, salt, garlic, and oil in a blender. Process on high speed until the mixture is smooth and combined. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Add the cheese and pulse process just to incorporate the cheese (you do not want to puree it).
Use immediately or place in a container and top with a thin layer of olive oil on the surface of the pesto. Tightly cover the container and either freeze for up to two months or refrigerate for up to one week. To use, carefully drain off the oil and then stir in any that didn't drain off.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Really easy and good. I added a little bit of brown sugar to cut the bitterness.
