I was in a pinch and did not want to run to the grocery store. I was very happy when I checked on foodnetwork.com and found this recipe. Works great and I always have powdered milk on hand. Thank you Paula.

While this is a tried and true recipe, it is also very unhealthy.

Here is an alternative which is much healthier and just as easy to make.

1 1/3 cup dry milk powder or plain/vanilla protein powder

1/2 cup water

Either 1/2 cup Splenda or 1 1/4 tsp liquid Stevia.

Mix powder and water until it forms a paste.

Heat in a saucepan on medium until hot, but not boiling.

Remove from heat and stir in sweetener.

Place in the fridge for 2 hours.


FYI - Stevia can have a bitter aftertaste if it has less than 90% Steviosides and 30% Rebaudioside(A. If you use one that does not have these ratios, reduce the Stevia by 1/3 in any recipe. In this case, change from 1 1/4 to 2/3 tsp + 1/8 tsp.

Enjoy! This is just as delicious and MUCH healthier!

I have had to alter a bit, as I am Lactose intolerant. Many are, you know. I do love you and you recipes, as well as you are very entertaining. A "real" person. Ya know what I mean? I have used many of your recipes, with my needed adjustments (sometimes it took several tries, though due to the "milk" thing, but all is well. I am a nurse, for many years, and do know how to adapt. My favorite recipe for the condensed milk, is one that a friend gave to me for the holidays for Bailey's Irish Cream, YUM YUM. Thank you Paula.......Emily Sorensen, Kingman, Arizona (formerly from Ohio, many years ago.

This is great. I am ashamed to say that I'm used to making the inevitable last-minute trip to the grocery store to get sweetened condensed milk when I'm making dessert. This recipe will ensure that I NEVER have to do that again! Thanks a million, Paula. By the way -your accent is NOT fake or overly-syrupy - I'm a steel-magnolia Southern girl, too, and I ought to know!!
