Dulce de Leche Blancmange

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 20cm (8in) round baking dish with butter and dust with rice flour.

   Tip: Use parchment paper for easier release.

2. 2

   In a medium saucepan, combine the milk powder, confectioner's sugar, and salt. Gradually add the dulce de leche and whisk until smooth.

   Tip: Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.

3. 3

   In a separate saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the vanilla extract and whisk until combined.

   Tip: Avoid burning the butter.

4. 4

   Slowly pour the melted butter into the milk mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.

   Tip: This is the most critical part of the recipe.

5. 5

   In a separate bowl, whisk the large egg yolks until light and fluffy. Add the granulated sugar and whisk until combined.

   Tip: Add the butter extract to the egg mixture for an extra boost of flavor.

6. 6

   Gradually pour the egg mixture into the milk mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.

   Tip: This should thicken the mixture significantly.

7. 7

   Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

   Tip: Use a knife to create a decorative edge.

8. 8

   Bake for 35 minutes, or until the top is set and the edges are golden brown.

   Tip: Avoid overbaking.

9. 9

   Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

   Tip: Let it set completely before serving.

10. 10

    To unmold, dip the dish into hot water for 10 seconds and invert onto a serving plate.

    Tip: Serve immediately and enjoy!
