1 2/3 cups sugar
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk

In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, milk, butter and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil and stir for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in remaining ingredients.

use a measuring cup, which is 8 ounces. they usually have the ounces indicted on the side of the cup
Well the only way i would do it is pour it in a wet measuring cup until it hits the 1/2 cup measure, then add more halfway to the 3/4 cup measure... it is 5/8 cup but i don't know how you could do it that way... Sorry if it's confusing
My pyrex measuring cup has ozs. and cups on it, do you have a measuring cup? If not, if you used 1/2 cup (4 ozs.) earlier, you have 8 ozs. left (12 oz. can), use half of what's left plus 3 tbsp.
If it was me I'd just pour in slightly less than 1/2 the can.
A half cup is 4 ounces so you'd need just a bit more than that.
5 ounces would be 10 Tablespoons. Hope that helps!
Yes.
