The present invention provides a method of preparing a solid milk product having a moisture level of less than about 40 percent and a fat/protein ratio of less than about 2.5, and preferably a moisture level of about 10 to about 30 percent and a fat/protein ratio of less than about 2. More preferably, the solid milk product has a fat/protein ratio of about 0.5 to about 1.5 and, even more preferably, about 1 to about 1.2. The present solid milk product is a high solids, low moisture, high-protein, shelf-stable milk product which is solid at ambient temperatures. A solid milk product of the present invention comprises about 15 to about 60 percent condensed fat-free milk or sweetened condensed fat-free milk; about 8 to about 40 percent anhydrous milkfat; about 1 to about 45 percent non-fat dry milk powder; 0 to about 3 percent sodium citrate, disodium phosphate, or mixtures thereof; 0 to about 1 percent TiO 2 ; and 0 to 1 percent emulsifier, wherein the solid milk product is a solid at ambient temperatures, has a moisture level of less than about 40 percent, and has a fat/protein ratio of less than about 2.5.
