How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s dive into the steps to create this heavenly dessert:

1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar until it turns golden brown. Quickly pour it into a round baking dish, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
3. In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
4. Pour the mixture over the caramelized sugar in the baking dish.
5. Place the baking dish in a larger baking pan and fill the outer pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the pudding dish. This water bath will help cook the pudim evenly.
6. Bake for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
8. To serve, run a knife around the edges and invert onto a plate. Enjoy your beautiful pudim!
