Oh, does this sound GOOD!! I’m going to make it to share with my church for December 14th potluck, and I think it’ll be gone before the other desserts will even be touched 🙂
Yes Joyce, it would for sure ?
Happy Holiday!
Regards.
Can this be made with dark chocolate?
You can try Cheryl, I think that wouldn’t be a problem.
Regards!
I tried this. It did not set up hard enough. I followed the directions and warmed the milk but not boil.
You need to use sweetened condensed milk and leave it in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours, Shirley.
Best regards.
I tried it and it never set up. Kept in frig 4 hours with no luck.
You can try it with a freezer, Carolyn and cut into squares before serving. It should be taken out of the freezer 15-30 minutes before serving, because the cutting will be easier.
