Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Very easy to make. It's cooking now. But directions forgot to tell you when to add milk. It should be after you have add flour. Smells delicious I did sneak a tortellini before I put it in oven. Tasted great!
