Ingredients:
- 1 (14 oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 4 cups of hot water
- 6 eggs
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- Nutmeg for garnish
Preparation Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. In a large bowl, combine the condensed milk and hot water.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and fluffy. Temper the eggs by slowly adding some of the hot milk mixture, then fully combine. Stir in the vanilla and salt.
- Pour the mixture into ramekins placed in a high-sided baking pan or directly into a 2-quart dish. Place ramekins in a water bath or, if using a large dish, place a pan of water on another oven shelf to bake.
- Bake for 1 hour or until a knife inserted comes out clean. If using a larger baking dish, bake for 1 hour and 40 minutes.
- Allow the custard to cool for 1 hour before serving. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve warm, or refrigerate to serve chilled.
This delightful custard, with its smooth texture and rich flavor, is sure to bring a touch of nostalgia and joy to any dessert table.
