Each can in the US is 14 ounce in the brand of condensed milk I found. 2 cans would be 28 ounces or 3.5 cups. What would you say the added egg yolks and eggs whites would be? Should I just double the eggs for 8 eggs or more? One can should be enough for the Original recipe but I want to scale this up because 3 hours for one can is kinda silly. At least two to make it more productive.
