non dessert ideas for condensed milk?

What are some non-dessert suggestions for using sweetened condensed milk? I’m looking for both sweet and savory recipes. And just to clarify, I’m referring specifically to the sweet variety of condensed milk—no need to explain the difference between that and evaporated milk. Thanks!
