I always use 2/3 cup for my tres leches cake and never know what to do with the rest of it...

Thanks!

I can't imagine why not? think the sugar and canning would make stable? not much loss to try it

Use it for Vietnamese coffee!

OR Vietnamese Coffee Ice Cream! See recipe inside>>>

This was fantastic! It was too sweet for me, so I added about 1 1/4 tsp instant espresso. Also, I reduced the ingredient amounts to accommodate the standard 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk, as noted in parentheses.

VIETNAMESE COFFEE ICE CREAM

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups sweetened condensed milk (I used 14 oz/1 1/4 cups)
1 1/2 cups brewed espresso or very strongly brewed coffee (I used 1 1/4 cups brewed espresso)
1/2 cup half and half (I used 6 Tbsp plus 2 tsp)
Big pinch of finely ground dark roast coffee (I used about 1 1/4 tsp instant espresso and dissolved it in the brewed espresso)

DIRECTIONS:

Whisk together the condensed milk, espresso, half and half, and ground coffee. Chill mixture thoroughly, then freeze in your ice cream maker according to the mfg. directions.
