Where to find ingredients
You can find sweetened condensed milk, instant coffee, and eggs in the baking or international aisles of any major Canadian supermarket. For the best texture, use full-fat whole milk, which is readily available in the dairy section.
Preparation method
- Prepare the caramel by heating the sugar directly in the pudding pan over low heat, ensuring the sides are evenly coated with the amber syrup.
- Place the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, instant coffee, and the optional liqueur or rum into a blender.
- Blend the mixture on high until it is completely smooth and homogeneous.
- Carefully pour the custard mixture into the prepared, caramel-lined pan.
- Cover the top of the pan snugly with aluminum foil.
- Place the pan in a water bath (bain-marie) and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 1 hour, or until the pudding is set.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator.
- Once chilled through, carefully unmold the pudding onto a serving platter.
- Serve well-chilled.
