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

what are brown beans? Can I use any type of cornmeal? and can this be made with gluten free flour? Thank you for this recipe - it sounds promising.
Brown beans are a type of bean - somewhat similar to kidney or pinto beans. Any cornmeal should be fine but you'd have to experiment with the gluten free flour as that is outside the scope of this recipe.
