I needed 7oz so I used 1/2 C Powdered Milk, 1/4 C Water (mixed together) then added to a double broiler along with 1/2 C Sugar (used Whey Low b/c my husband is a diabetic). Continued to stir for 15 min. Made great Sweetened Condensed Milk.

Yes, the directions are lacking. But the finished product is great. If you don't know, constant stirring is a must. I also wouldn't let it full on boil; the stirring should help eliminate this.

I made this sweetened condensed milk tonight when I was craving a cinnamon latte, and really didn't want to make that trip to Starbucks. This worked out great! Very easy and a lot less expensive than buying the can. I'm not sure if I will ever buy a can of it again because of how quick this recipe for it is, it would be silly not to make it instead. I didn't have the problem of this burning like some others, but I just made sure I stirred it constantly until it was thickened. Oh, and my latte turned out fabulous! Thanks for the recipe, Jeannie!

First, I tried this with splenda thanks to HotGrandma, who threw down the gantlet. this did not work, the result was grainy and would not smooth out. I then tried it with regular sugar. It was still grainy even tho I combined the dry milk and water before I heated it up. I accidentally burned it a bit. I sorta salvaged it by running it throw a sieve. I will use it for oatmeal next week. sorry, could not make this work out for me :(

Thank you for the recipe. My hubby is a diabetic and I am constantly searching for recipes I can convert using a non sugar sub., There are many recipes out there but you have to find how to convert the components like condensed milk so that you can make it for a diabetic to eat. Thank you for providing this.

This worked well in place of the canned I didn't have and saved me a trip out in the rain. I used a double boiler to prevent the burning issues, but was never able to bring the mix to a boil. It still cooked down and turned out fine. Learned hard way that canned milk is not 14 fluuid ounces and used too much of this in the recipe I was making.

This recipe is also easy to adapt for people who are diabetic. Just substitute 3/4 of Splenda for the sugar.

One reviewer said this burned while cooking and, even though I stirred it constantly while it cooked, it definitely burned for me too. I made a second batch in the microwave oven and timed and watched it very carefully so it wouldn't boil over. I zapped for 1 min., stirred zapped for 30 seconds, twice, stirred, then continued to zap until it boiled almost to the rim for 15 seconds. I did this for 5 times, stirring after each. Finally, I put it into my Bullet and blended it for about 50 seconds till it was totally smooth and exactly like the canned version. I'll make it this way from now on - it tastes like what I always bought before but is much cheaper to make. It actually takes less time to make it this way, too!

In Germany: Nestlé make condensed sweetened milk in tubes and cans under the brand "Milchmädchen". Kaufhof/Hertie/Walmart should stock it. I've never seen powdered milk here except on an army base.
