Natillas Dessert Recipe
3 Cups whole milk
4 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
1/2 Cup sugar
1 cinnamon stick
Add milk and cinnamon to a large sauce pan and heat on medium until bubbles appear on sides of pan. Usually takes about 3 minutes. Remove cinnamon and set aside. In a large bowl beat eggs, yolks, and sugar for about 4 minutes. Using an electric beater slowly pour milk into egg mixture. You’ll need to be careful and mix well while pouring milk or you’ll have scrambled eggs in milk. Pour mixture into a large sauce pan and cook on low. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until mixture thickens or right until it is about to boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Chill until refrigerator afterward. Serve in small bowls with cinnamon sprinkled on top.
