11 Easy Sweet Treats to Make With a Tin of Milo

It’s a firm favourite with Aussie kids and comes in an iconic green coloured tin. Can you guess what it is? YES! We’re talking about Milo!

There’s nothing quite like that grainy, malted chocolate powder. Intended for drinking purposes, it’s so often eaten straight from the tin with a sizeable spoon.
