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

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
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!

It was good except there was to much bacon. Maybe try half a piece of bacon. You should also put cream cheese with the almonds. Every thing ekse was delicious. I especially like the flavors blended together in a perfect way. - The Food Critic

Just returned from Murcia, Spain where we had these in restaurant called Restaurant Rebate near El Mojon and Campoamor. They were served on a bed of lettuce as a starter - just divine. Can't wait to cook them myself! They also serve steak like nowhere else on earth, about 2 inches thick and melts in your mouth.
