Easy

This isn't just a simple dessert; it's a wonderfully rich, and intensely satisfying treat that melts in your mouth. You'll only need three humble ingredients – dulce de leche, milk, and eggs – to create something truly delicious. Forget complicated techniques; all you really need beyond these staples is an oven and a dash of good cheer!

Prep time is a breeze, literally just 10 minutes, and there's no need to fuss over it while it bakes. I'd say even a culinary novice – perhaps a teenager or someone who rarely ventures into the kitchen – could whip up this delicately sweet, caramel-infused pudding with ease.

For the best experience, plan to make this pudding today for tomorrow. Giving it ample time to chill in the fridge allows its luscious texture and deep caramel flavor to fully stabilize and develop, ensuring every bite is pure bliss.

Ingredient Notes:

Dulce de Leche: Use your favorite good-quality dulce de leche. Alternatively, you can make your own by boiling a can of sweetened condensed milk until it caramelizes.
Eggs: This recipe is designed for medium-sized eggs, roughly 50-55 grams each. For an even creamier, richer texture, feel free to substitute some or all of the whole eggs with egg yolks. When swapping, estimate about 20 grams per yolk.
Milk: You’ll get fantastic results with whole milk (2.5-3.5% fat), which provides a lovely, balanced richness. If you’re craving a decadent, melt-in-your-mouth texture and a more luxurious flavor, try replacing half of the milk with heavy cream (30% fat or higher). Alternatively, half-and-half (9-11% fat) is a great option for a subtly richer pudding.

Let’s start cooking.

Place the dulce de leche in a saucepan over medium heat and heat, stirring constantly, until soft.

Remove from heat and whisk in milk until smooth.

Add the eggs.

Beat with a whisk until smooth.

Pour the mixture into ceramic ramekins, then place the ramekins in a baking dish.

Pour boiling water into the baking dish until the ramekins are submerged up to 2/3 of their height.

Place the dish in an oven that has been preheated to 150°C (300°F) and bake for approximately 45 minutes. Remove and allow to cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Serve.

Enjoy!
