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!

I made some changes and it was very tasty. Instead of orzo, I cooked linguine in chicken stock. Meanwhile in a frying pan I sautéed a little minced garlic in olive oil and then added the ham strips and cooked asparagus. I tossed in the drained linguine and stirred in the parmesan cheese. My husband loved it and I will make it again.

I think you are supposed to maybe drain the liquid? Orzo is pasta not rice so it won't absorb it all. I drained it and then combined everything. Really great flavor but I think it's missing that one crucial step.

The combination was alright. Way too much liquid! Would not make again.
