Default What Can I Do With Partial Can Of Sweetened Condensed Milk?


Yesterday I opened a can of Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk, as was
making slice & bake cookies that called for 1/8 cup of that type of
milk, and so now I have this 14 oz. can in the refrigerator, minus that
amount. It costs over $3 a can here now, so I hate to just throw it out,
but all the recipes I can recollect using it for, call for the entire
can, so does anyone know of something I could make to use up the
remainder?

Thanks for any ideas!

Judy

That was the first thing I thought of too, but I always use a little
fat-free half & half, and the sweetened condensed seems too rich, and
also would add sweetness to the coffee, so don't think I'd care for
that.

What's in fat-free half & half? You are a fool. Who could be stupid
enough to pay real food prices for that crap?

Great idea! So little SCM has been used, she can make just about any
recipe that calls for a full can - like these recipes

Make your own Irish Cream

4 eggs
1 pint cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon chocolate syrup
8-10 oz Irish whiskey (or rye or scotch)

Put all ingredients in a blender and give it a good whiz.

Thanks for all the options....for sure I will check them out. I've used
SCM a lot over the years, but every recipe idea I found, or thought of,
uses a entire can of it, and wasn't sure if substituting 2 tbsp. of
another type of milk would be successful.

Do you have some sweetened, flaked coconut? Mix it with the canned milk
until you can form small balls. Bake them until they begin to turn
golden. You can top the macaroons with a half of a candied cherry if you
have them.

Thanks, that is a good idea, as my one granddaughter loves macaroons, so
know she'd be happy with those.

(LOL) Yes, that would be an option alright, except one recipe makes
4-1/2 dozen, so I'd end up with enough for an army, though I suppose I
could freeze them, but don't care to make that many more of them, even
though they are a nice rich butter cookie, and I decorated them with
Halloween sprinkles.

Most any recipe you have for a whole can won't suffer much from
1/8 cup (2 Tbsp?) less of the milk. Youc an always add 1/8 cup of milk
or other liquid to make up the deficit.

You could transform it into dulce de leche, obviously not using
the boiled can method.

Hot fudge. In a heavy saucepan melt two squares of unsweetened baking
chocolate, add the can (or most of a can) of sweetened condensed milk.
Heat and stir until evenly blended. Apply to your sundae, banana split,
etc.

I frequently use it in Jello 'Cook' pudding mixes. Makes chocolate pudding
(with vanilla wafers) or vanilla pudding (with bananas) just a little richer
and sweeter. Since I use fat-free milk, the addition of 'some' condensed
milk helps. Polly

Take this recipe and adjust by whatever to match proportions of the
remainder of the SCM

I can SCM
pint cream
4 eggs
1 Tbsp chocolate syrup
10 oz Irish whisky (or any whisky)

Put it in a blender and whizz it all together.

'A Moose in Love' is the name of a thoroughbred horse that runs the
major track circuit. I understand that your husband is an avid
hunter. So I'm going to talk a bit about Moose.
I was in Northern Ontario a few years back, and pulled off the road
into a small rest area. I got out of my car, and there about 20 yards
from me was a big old moose. It looked at me, and I looked at it. I
glanced away for a second or two, and when I looked back, the moose
was gone. Not a sound. Such a big animal, and not a twig disturbed
etc. It was just gone.
Around 2000, I was driving at night in Newfoundland. I was warned
about the moose. I thought that the Newfies were pulling my leg. But
that night, the woods beside the roads were packed with moose. I was
speeding, and the mounties pulled me over and warned me. The one
officer told me that the prior week, his friend while driving was
attacked by a moose. The moose ran up to his car, and slammed his
head in the back window. The head of the moose was ripped off.
Anyway, I had a moose charge me that night. It ran up to my car, but
at the last minute veered away. Whew. Close call.
Many wild animals are quiet in the bush. My first experience was with
wild Rocky Mountain Sheep. My buddies and I were muckin' about back
in the mountains behind Fernie, BC. We came upon a herd of about 10
sheep. I had my camera. I looked down to make the correct F-stops,
and shutter speeds. When I looked back, the sheep were gone. Not a
sound. Nothing.

Enjoyed hearing about your moose experiences, etc. They can really get
angry (particularly when they are in rut and wanting a lady moose (cow)
but they are very unpredictable, and can't be trusted.

My husband has shot many of them through the years, and even rescued a
newborn calf from the river near his cabin. Just a few minutes longer,
and it would have drowned. He thinks a brown bear must have gotten the
mother. We love the meat...it is much better than beef, and as I
understand it, it is the only meat that has vitamin C in it, so good for
preventing colds! )

Thanks! this really does sound so good. Out of all the suggestions that

I make hot fudge sauce like that, only with skim milk, and it has
great flavor and consistency. Each to his/her own.

There are some "no cook" fudge recipes out there - I'd have to ask my
wife for the details but involve things like melting chocolate chips,
adding sweetened condensed milk, some vanilla, and, well, that's it -
you pour it into something and let it cool.

I've mentioned this before I think: I used to make a salad dressing
with condensed milk, vinegar, and hot mustard powder. Just vary the
components to get the consistency and heat you want. Went well with
my standard tossed salad (the only sort of salad I actually like).

Another thought: Condensed milk seems to live forever in the fridge.
If air can get at it, it will form a crust that you have to break
through to get at the still-liquid stuff below. (Come to that, the
crust is very edible too. :-)


Cheers, Phred.

Throw it out. I can't stand the stuff. I can't even look at it, let
alone use it or taste it. LOL. Not what you wanted to hear, I'm

Huh?! why is that, Nancy? I've used it for 60 years in baking and for
candy making...it's a wonderful ingredient, and doesn't really have a
"flavor" of it's own when it's an added ingredient. I've never tasted it
as is, but there is no strong unpleasant smell from it when I open it,
so I'm baffled why you feel as you do?

Every time I open a can of sweetened condensed milk I think of the
father of a childhood friend. The man had spent 3 1/2 years in a
Japanese PoW camp and he told us about getting cans of SCM in the Red
Cross parcels and he pantomimed wiping the can clean with his finger and
then licking and sucking every last bit off his fingers.

It just looks and smells like some old kind of dairy glop -
unappetizing color to boot. Don't ask me, it's just a foible. One of
many, probably. LOL.

I think whole corn mixed into things like salsa or salads or soups
makes the dish look like vomit, too - it's just my view, twisted as it
may be.

find one that uses the entire can, cut it by twenty five percent, proceed as

you would normally prefer sweet, also not bad in hot cereals, Lee
