Learning to substitute condensed milk means you’re never hostage to a grocery run. You’re free. You can make fudge at 2 a.m. if the mood strikes.
It also impresses people. Tell a friend you made condensed milk from scratch, and they’ll look at you like you just juggled flaming torches. You basically did.
So go raid your pantry. Mess up. Try again. Because sticky, sweet magic is always within reach. And it tastes way better when you know the trick.
