Help-opened a can of sweetened condensed milk-suggestions?

[uppityperson]

What do I do with a can of sweetened condensed milk? We open it by accident rather than a can of condensed milk and now it is sitting there looking at me begging to be used in some manner. Any suggestions?

10. 4, they get the plain condensed, not the sweetened

[K8-EEE]

3. Don't They Use It In Those "No Bake" Cookies?

My coffee place, I think they said they use nuts, that sticky milk and...I dunno something else!

I don't like sugar in my coffee but if you do, do like the Cubans do and get yourself a BIG STRONG STRONG STRONG espresso and mix it with the condenced milk!

6. It's great in coffee !

You can add it to hot coffee, or iced coffee, Thai style.

7. Use it as creamer in a coffee...

Makes for a tasty cup.

;)

8. Put it in very strong coffee. Or, mix the can with 3 cups of

melted chocolate chips, a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of vanilla--
put in the refrigerator until firm.
"idiotproof fudge".

9. Bake a CHEESECAKE!

Perhaps, I need to come over there and show you how to do it

16. I'll provide the ingredients and coffee!

[Mrs.Matcom]

11. Do you have...

A bag of chocolate chips? Some vanilla? maybe some walnuts? if you do, put the milk, and bag of chocolate chips in a double boiler and melt them together stirring continuously. Once melted, take off heat and add a teaspoon of vanilla and the nuts, spread into an 8"x 8" foil lined pan. Put in fridge to cool, cut into squares and eat!

12. Melt the following together in a double boiler:

16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 tbsp butter
One can condensed milk

Take care that the chocolate doesn't burn -- as soon as it looks like it's starting to melt, take it off the heat and stir and let the residual heat finish melting. Alternatively -- heat up the butter and milk until the butter melts, then remove from heat and stir in the chocolate.

Anyhow.

Pour into an 8 X 8 cake pan that's been lined with buttered parchment or plastic wrap (or, use a disposable foil pan). Let cool until it's room temperature, then put in the fridge to set (about 2 hours).

Easy fudge, basically.

If you want, stir in some peanut butter, or top with mini-marshmallows and broken graham crackers, or whatever else suits your fancy.

13. Make a key lime pie

Here's my recipe - it's quick and super easy!

1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 small can of limeade
1 container of cool whip
green food coloring
and one graham cracker crust pie shell

Mix first three together then tint with food coloring. Put in shell and refrigerate until it sets. Enjoy!

14. Key Lime Pie

Graham Cracker Crust
Two cans sweetened condensed milk
A dozen real key limes (much smaller than regular limes)
-or- about four regular limes
Two eggs


Juice the limes into a cup and save the juice, toss the rinds. Whisk the juice with the eggs and stir in the sweetened condensed milk. Pour mixture into graham cracker pie crust and chill for two hours in the fridge.

Easy peasy, Japaneesy.

[Pithlet]

I posted a recepie for down thread. They are delicious. Especially when they're still warm and gooey.

[uppityperson]

34. They're coming out of the oven in 15 minutes.

[Nicole]

[MissMillie]

She was a mega baby but she grew up thin.

[Samurai_Writer]

23. Make a pumpkin pie?

That's all I ever use it for.

[shesemsmom]

24. YUM

I love that in my coffee. When the Hubby cooks with it I get the leftovers lol

[StopTheMorans]

25. 1. pour in neighbor's front yard. 2. release all cats from local SPCA

3. sit back and enjoy.

[Arugula Latte]

26. I could drink that stuff straight!

(And have, on one occasion!) YUM. I told myself, well, it's kinda like a milkshake or verry runny vanilla pudding.

I don't even want to know the calorie count...

[uppityperson]

28. It reminds me of my baby formula

Thanks everyone, I'm making the 7 layer magic cookie bars right now. Thank you for all the suggestions. I had to buy another can at the store and will do the keylime pie next. Yum!

[Zorra]

29. Dump the milk and eat the can. n/t

[Pithlet]

30. These are awsome.

http://southernfood.about.com/od/browniesbars/r/bl30629t.htm

My grandmother used to make these. They're called Hello Dollies. They are chocolatey, coconutty, graham crackery goodness.

[Ellen Forradalom]

31. Vietnamese iced coffee.

Stuff packs a wallop. Yum.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

39. That's my suggestion

if you want to be up all night. :-)

[Beaverhausen]

32. LOL! This thread is so funny.

Lots of people here with sweet tooths.

sweet teeth? No, that's not right...

[uppityperson]

35. Reporting back on the bars-wonderful!!!

I love macaroons. I really like haystacks (chocolate and butterscotch chips melted and dumped over toasted chinese noodles). But I now have a new favorite. Thank you everyone for the suggestions. Yummy.

Recommendation, make sure they cool before eating unless you like to pop roof of the mouth blisters.

[Pithlet]

36. I'm glad you like them. Now I want some!

I don't make them often because my husband is allergic to coconut.

[uppityperson]

40. I am sick and had nightmares, too many sugar bars last night

Next time I'll share. I woke with a headache and they gave me a bad dream last night where I got a notice from my old highschool that they'd figured out the entire class of '72 had to come back and take 1 more history class. Though they are good for breakfast.

[Blue_In_AK]

37. It's great in coffee. n/t

[yellowdogintexas]
