Whenever I use a boxed cake mix, I use one cup of milk instead of water and a half cup of melted butter (one stick) instead of vegetable oil. This hack makes a really moist cake.

Condensed Milk has sugar in it, Evaporated Milk doesn’t. The main difference between evaporated milk, and condensed milk. Is that evaporated milk unsweetened while condensed milk IS sweetened. Evaporated milk, (unsweetened condensed milk) is made by removing the water content (about 60%) from regular fresh milk. The result is a creamier richer liquid with a slightly darker shade unlike regular milk, condensed milk, and evaporated milk is shelf stable. I love all your videos!! NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS

When zesting a lime or any other fruit, use the zester like a cheese grater. Don't turn the fruit while zesting. Run the fruit along the zester, then turn the fruit to a new spot and do it again. This will give you more control to not get the white pith part of the fruit, which can be very bitter when cooked. It will also save your hand from getting tired quickly.

If you want a super easy no bake cheesecake you should try the recipe I have used for years. It is so simple and makes 2 cheesecakes at one time with very few ingredients. You need 2 graham crackers crusts, 3 blocks of the 8oz cream cheese, one can of sweetened condensed milk, and half of an 8oz cool whip and any flavor pie filling of your choice. My family loves strawberry pie filling the best. The filling is mixing the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk until really smooth, and fold in the cool whip. Divide it between the two crusts and set in the fridge overnight so that it sets up and firms. Once it sets up add the pie filling on top and chill. I usually put my can of pie filling in the fridge to chill at the same time I set my cheesecake in the fridge to set up. That way it is cold when put on top and you can eat it sooner. Give it a try. You will love it. My family especially my brother begs for it every time he comes in for a visit. Keep the recipes coming. I know how much you love your cats. I have one who will be 17 years old this September. Pets are the best. Make sure to let the cheesecake mixture to set up before putting the pie filling on top or it will make a mess and sink into the cheesecake

@@YouSUBSCRIBE739 your welcome. It is simple but really good. I learned it from my late father's second wife. Not many have it but it is too good not to share. Just make sure to give the cheesecake filling long enough to firm up. It is better that way before putting the pie filling on top. To make it with the strawberry pie filling I sometimes cut up some fresh strawberries to mix with the strawberry pie filling but know if you do this you need to make sure it is eaten quicker so that the fresh strawberries don't spoil.
