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

ingredients
24 sea scallops
salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup cognac
2 whole fresh black truffles, thinly shaved, optional
directions
Have on hand individual deep Asian soup spoons or small custard cups (one per scallop)
Remove the membrane from the scallops. Season the scallops with salt and pepper.
In a large heavy-based skillet, heat the oil and, when the oil is hot, melt the butter. Sear the scallops over high heat for 1 minute on a side or until the scallops are golden and caramelized. Pour the cognac into the pan and let it bubble up until it evaporates.
Place one scallop on each Asian spoon or in each custard cup. Garnish each with a sliver of shaved truffle, if using, and serve at once.

This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
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.

Wish I could get my hands on black truffles at a reasonable price but I couldn't so I had to omit them. I did use the good cognac we had in the bar and that was totally worth it. Scallops are already a bit on the buttery side but this dish just made them practically melt in your mouth.
