Ingredients:

  • 1 cup condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup milk powder
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla

To make the caramel:

  • 5 tbsp sugar

Recipe:

First melt the sugar in the mold that we are going to use to make the quesillo, heating it until it has a dark golden color.
In a blender beat the eggs until they are well integrated, then add the condensed milk, milk powder and vanilla, beat for about 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into the mold, cover and cook in a bain-marie for 45 minutes at 190ºC. To check that the quesillo is ready you can insert a toothpick into the mixture, if it comes out dry it's ready. Let stand for a few hours and then unmold on a plate taking care and that the caramel is on top.
