I am a very happily married Christian gal in Eastern NC. My husband and I both work and are trying to buy our first home. Being frugal and learning how to live on a budget and within our means is very important to us. We hope that we might be able to give some helpful tips to people who are just starting out in the frugal lifestyle!
Just on a personal note, I love cooking, our three spoiled kitties, reading, movies with my hubbie, going to baseball games, and lots of other fun stuff! I would love to hear from people who share similar interests and come up with fun things to do with your spouse that fit right into your frugal budget!
Hi Jessie! There are TONS of ways to use Sweetened Condensed milk. If you go to the nestle website, they have lots of recipes using this product! I use evaporated milk very often in place of milk for many recipes.
Sweeteneded condensed milk (which is DIFFERENT from evaporated milk) is wonderful in making desserts and cakes, and brownies, fudge, candy, etc... Here is a link to one recipe:
Another one of my favorite recipes using sweetened condensed milk is for peanut butter cookies:
EASY PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk 3/4 to 1 c. peanut butter 1 egg 1 tsp. vanilla 2 c. biscuit mix
Preheat oven 350 degrees. In bowl, beat sweetened condensed milk, peanut butter, egg and vanilla until smooth. Add biscuit mix and stir well. Chill at least 1 hour. Shape into 1 inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Flatten with fork. Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Makes about 5 dozen.
This is the cheapest I can find this book!! I'm not sure where you can find a copy for under $10, especially with shipping. You might want to try www.ioffer.com, I couldn't find it on there today, but that's a great site where you can bargain or trade for a listed item for sale. Good luck! Sorry I can't help more! ...
