I used this to make sweetened condensed milk for a key lime pie. I used goat's milk (because some members of my family have a difficult time digesting cow's milk). It worked great and tasted just like the real thing. I will definitely be making my sweetened condensed milk again. Very easy.

This turned out very well. I used it in a key lime pie, and it was perfect. I liked being able to control the sweetness, and ended up using a bit less sugar than the recipe called for.

I have to say,this recipe save me when I ran out of the canned type and needed scm asap! I used a hand mixer and it turned out great! It had a nice texture and with this recipe,at least you know it does not contain any preservatives and doesn't have that canned taste,although it is a little similar,because it's been packaged in a can,it gives it a much artificial flavor.With this recipe,at least I know it's freshly made and no chemicals in it.

I had to add a little extra water to get it to the right consistency, but other than that it was perfect. Tasted exactly like the canned variety.

I followed the recipe exactly and found mine wasn't thickening at all until cold. It had a strong powdered milk scent before baking and unfortunately tasted powdered-milky after baked as well. I used it for seven layer bars and would not do that again. I won't make this again and am glad I didn't need these to serve these bars to anyone. The canned SCM isn't as expensive as the wasted ingredients to make it and tossing your finished product out.

I have been making this for years. I got the recipe originally at a Tupperware party a long time ago.

This is a fantastic recipe and so easy! I didn't have any regular powdered milk, so I used the powdered vanilla coffee creamer I had in the cuboard and it turnes out delicious! I used it for "Brown Family's Favorite Pumpkin Pie" from this site and the result was mouth watering to say the least! Thank you so much!!

I ran out of sweetened condensed milk and needed something in a hurry, so I looked here. After using this recipe I don't want to ever buy sweetened condensed milk again. I'll just make it! Just be careful because it gets really thick quick.
