How to measure sweetened condensed milk accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh sweetened condensed milk on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of sweetened condensed milk weighs about 306 grams (10.8 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts sweetened condensed milk and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: Grease your measuring cup or warm the can slightly so the syrupy milk slides out cleanly instead of clinging to the sides.
