This recipe sounds so simple, but I have made it several times (twice today!) and it A) always comes out different and B) never tastes the way it used to at school. I have also tried boiling the evaporated in milk (still in the can) in a pan of water and then cooling it, before whipping it with the sugar, which improved it a bit. There must be a knack in it!
