- Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and well-combined.
- Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared caramel-coated mold.
- Cover the mold tightly with a sheet of aluminum foil.
- Bake in a bain-marie (water bath) in a preheated oven at 180°C for approximately 1 hour, or until the custard is set.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature before placing it in the refrigerator.
- Once thoroughly chilled, carefully unmold the pudding onto a serving platter.
