Comments
The definition of "Milnot" milk is at the end of the recipe. What stores may or may not carry it currently, I don't know. Google the term and see what you can find. You can try sweetened condensed milk, I don't know what difference it would make but it is probably close.

Interesting recipe, but what is Milnot milk? Is that like condensed milk?
