 | | Directions |
- Place a can of evaporated milk in the freezer until ice cold, approximately 1 hour.
- Dissolve the gelatin in hot water.
- Chill until partially set, approximately 1 1/2 hours.
- Remove from the refrigerator and whip with an electric mixer until fluffy, this usually takes 7-10 minutes to get it fluffy.
