Travel back in time to experience disco in all its glory while we make Berry Cool Pie and Keto Sweetened Condensed Milk and reflect on paranormal stories of ghosts of the period, disco hauntings, the death of disco, and the emergence of new forms of dance music. 

Berry Cool Pie.  This recipe comes from: The Eagle Brand website, keto version of sweetened condensed milk below.

https://www.eaglebrand.com/recipe-detail/berrycoolpie-4071
1 (14 oz./414 ml) can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 ½ to 2 (150 – 190 g) cups assorted fresh berries (raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries)
1 (8 oz./226 g) container whipped topping, thawed
1 (6 oz.)  pre-made graham cracker pie crust (9 inch/23 cm)

Directions: Mix together sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice in a large bowl until blended.  Stir in berries.  Fold in whipped topping.  Spoon into crust.  Freeze 5 hours or until set.  Let stand 30 to 40 minutes before serving.  Garnish as desired. Optional: drizzle with fudge sauce.

Sugar Free Condensed Milk
2 1/2 cups (625 ml) heavy cream
1/4  cup (57 g)  butter
3/4 cup (150 g) sweetener of choice.  I used equal portions of Allulose and powdered monk fruit
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Add all your ingredients into a large shallow saucepan.  Smaller saucepans will require a longer cook time and may come out runnier. 
On medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil. Stir regularly, until it begins to simmer. Once it begins to simmer, reduce the heat to very low. Let the condensed milk simmer for around 30-40 minutes.
