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

Have a taste of fall anytime you like with this from-scratch hot chocolate recipe.

4 cups milk
1/2 pound dark chocolate, finely chopped
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice, plus more as needed
whipped cream
Heat the milk in a large saucepan over medium heat. Do not let it boil. Add the chocolate and cook, stirring constantly, until the chocolate has dissolved.
Add the pumpkin pie spice and stir to mix. Bring the hot chocolate just to a simmer then pour into heat-proof mugs.
Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, if desired.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

We made this at Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. Some of the grownups added bailey's pumpkin spice for a boozy version.
