Yummmy! make your own sweetened condensed milk out of 1/2 cup cold water, 11/3 cups nonfat dry milk, 3/4 cup sugar 1 t vanilla. In 2 cup bowl mix milk and water until smooth. Microwave 45 sec. to 1 min until steaming. Add sugar and vanilla. Mix and cool completely. Makes 1 can 14oz. Could use Splenda.

Very rich but very tasty. The calories are accurate. To check, all you have to do is enter the ingredients in a calorie calculator. It's not that hard. "recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp"
