What am I supposed to do with this...

Hello everyone,

So i was down in the storage room and noticed some cans of 2% Partly Skimmed Milk... Any ideas on how to use this up?

Thanks

Do you have an ice cream maker? Make some ice cream.

My favorite is chocolate...

· 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
· 3 cups of your canned milk
· 1 cup heavy cream
· 8 large egg yolks
· 1-1/4 cups sugar
· 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Put your egg yolks in a blender. In a sauce pan, mix the chocolate and sugar together and add the milk and cream. Bring it to a boil and remove from the heat. Then turn the blender on and slowly pour enough of the boiling milk in the blender onto the eggs to fill the blender 3/4 full; blend for 1 minute. Pour the egg mixture back into the pan with the remaining milk and stir to mix well. The residual heat of the milk will cook and slightly thicken the eggs. Stir in the vanilla and pour into a clean container and store in the frig overnight to give the mixture time to chill.

Then make the ice cream. This is very rich and yummy!!!

Then use your egg whites to make an angel food cake and you can have cake and ice cream.

Not for nothing I would check the expiration dates on those bad boys. You could make rice pudding with it - this is a good time of year for something sweet that also stick to the ribs and gets the old carb burner going.
Sine whole milk is only 4% fat that means 2% isn't so THIN. unless you're losing weight. Add a couple eggs to it and it'll tighten up nicely

They would be perfect for homemade scalloped potatoes.

Expiration dates are still good

Thanks for the suggestions guys!

I think that i might try making that chocolate ice cream for now, it sounds delish!
I'll let you all know how it turns out.
Thanks again!

ETA: I forgot that it is EVAPORATED

How did i forget to mention that!

I assumed it was evaporated...I thought all canned milk was evaporated.

Can't wait to make it! It's been so busy I haven't had any time. Do you have any pictures of it?

If you're talking about pictures of the ice cream...I've some chocolate and vanilla in the freezer. I can go snap a picture but it will take a little time to put them up. I live in the boonies and all we have is dial up so it will take a while. I'll run do that. Be back later...

We keep our ice cream in glass containers in the freezer, I haven't had very good luck with plastic. The plastic gets brittle when it freezes and it's very easy to punch a hole in the side of the container with a spoon.

I read an old cookbook that said you can use it anyway you use cream!
