How to Make the Recipe

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

1. Start by making the caramel. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar with a few tablespoons of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Allow it to boil without stirring until it turns a golden brown color. Quickly pour the caramel into a round mold, tilting it to coat the bottom evenly.
2. In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, Nutella, eggs, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Pour the mixture over the caramel in the mold.
4. Cover the mold with aluminum foil and place it in a larger baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the mold. This water bath will help cook the pudim evenly.
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
7. To serve, carefully invert the pudim onto a serving plate. The caramel will flow over the top, creating a beautiful glaze!

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your pudim turns out perfectly:

• Make sure to blend the ingredients thoroughly for a smooth texture.
• Don’t skip the water bath; it’s essential for a creamy consistency.
• For an extra touch, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top before serving.
• If you want to get creative, try adding a layer of crushed hazelnuts on top for added crunch!

How to Serve

This pudim is a showstopper on its own, but you can elevate it even further! Here are some serving suggestions:

• Serve alongside fresh berries for a refreshing contrast.
• Pair it with a cup of coffee or a glass of dessert wine for a delightful end to your meal.

Make Ahead and Storage

This pudim is perfect for making ahead of time! Here’s how to store it:

• Once cooled, cover the pudim with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate. It will keep well for up to 3 days.
