Evaporated milk helps cut the fat in this classic recipe which traditionally uses cream. Because Carnation gives a rich, creamy taste, you won't even miss the cream. To save time, this recipe has been adapted to use a purchased frozen pie shell. If using a homemade 9-inch (23 cm) pie shell, use 1 full can (385 ml) Nestlé® Carnation® 2% Evaporated Milk.
