I do not have whole milk in the house and I have done a little searching and Carnation's website says that evaporated milk is milk with half of the water heated out of it - so will I get good results from subbing with 1/2 evaporated milk 1/2 water? Must I heat it up or just stir it together?

Thanks

Do I need to thin it down or would it be alright to use it straight? Do they substitute one to one?

Just mix it together and use it 1:1 like you would regular milk.

I should've been more clear - this is for a scratch cake recipe. Thanks for your help!
