Ingredients

  • Canned evaporated milk (enough to substitute the amount of cream you are replacing)

    Can I make this the night before I need to use it?

    Yes you can. However, do be aware that it will lose some of its thickness. It is best to do it on the day or right before using it, but it will still be creamy goodness if you make it the night before.

  • Question

    Do I add sugar and vanilla?

    Adding a small amount of confectioner's sugar is a better option than normal sugar. A few drops of vanilla is all right too.
