You can use buttermilk (or heavy cream) and miracle whip in place of the milk and mayo for a punched up flavor, and more creamy sauce.

Very good. Will try it with the canned milk next time for a creamier dressing.

like holderdonna5 my mom used evaporated milk that she put in a jar with apple cider vinegar and shook. It makes a very creamy dressing. She also added celery seed to her slaw.
