Directions & Tips:
In all these recipes, anything that has a dry or thick ingredient (like cinnamon, honey, etc.) should be heated up with a small amount of your milk/cream from the base recipe so it can dissolve properly. Then, add the rest of the milk/cream along with the sweetened condensed milk.
If you want really creamy creamer, use heavy cream instead of milk in your base recipe.
