Natillas Con Galleta Maria Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Custard

   In a medium saucepan, combine the condensed milk, milk, sugar, and cinnamon stick over medium heat. Stir until the mixture is well combined and heated through, but do not let it boil.

2. 2

   Mix the Eggs

   In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Gradually add a small amount of the warm milk mixture to the eggs while whisking continuously to temper the eggs.

3. 3

   Combine and Thicken

   Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture. Continue to cook on low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

4. 4

   Add Vanilla

   Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Discard the cinnamon stick.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dessert

   In serving bowls or glasses, layer the custard and Maria cookies. Start with a layer of custard, followed by a layer of cookies. Repeat until the bowls are filled, finishing with a layer of custard on top.

6. 6

   Chill

   Refrigerate the assembled natillas for at least 2 hours or until set. Serve chilled.
