Recipe Notes

*Home-made Vegan Condensed Milk with no refined sugar: This can be made and stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Take 1 can of coconut milk (13.6 oz) and heat in a saucepan with 1/2 cup of coconut sugar. Bring mixture to a gentle boil, cooking for 20 minutes and stirring occasionally until mixture has thickened and reduced in half. It will look like a dark caramel color.
