Notes

This recipe thickens the more it cools, up to a certain point, of course.
Make sure your water is plenty hot enough to dissolve both the dry milk and sugar. You don’t want to end up with clumps.
This recipe makes the perfect amount for replacing the average can size found at the store, which is 14 ounces.
Do not store outside the fridge. Store in a sealed container for up to 4-6 days.
