Dulce De Leche
Unexpectedly it's the Eve of Eid and the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Days just flew by and I am kind of feeling a bit overwhelmed with sadness. I hope our Rabb accepts all our deeds and make us among the righteous until our last breath.
Without further a do, let's get to our EID dessert and who doesn't love Dulce de Leche? ( Cooked condensed milk)
The dessert is a marriage between the flavors of tiramisu and Dulce de Leche without the addition of coffee.
Try to set the dessert in the refrigerator overnight for better results.
Ingredients:
- 1 pack Italian Lady finger biscuits
- 1/3 cup White Sugar
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 Can Condensed Milk
- 1 cup Milk
- 7-8 Kiri Cheese Cubes/ Cream Cheese
- 1 1/4 cup whipping cream
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla essence
- Cocoa powder
Instructions:
- In a non stick pan, allow the sugar to caramelize.
- Add the butter, one tbsp at a time and stir gently.
- Finally pour milk, little at a time and mix well.
- Allow to simmer on low heat for 3-4 until slightly thick. Instant Dulce de Leche is ready!
- In a bowl, pour the milk and Dulce de Leche (or blend them).
- Dip the lady finger biscuits in the milk and arrange on a tray.
- Beat the whipping cream and set aside 1/4 of the cream for piping as decoration.
- In a bowl, cream or mix the Kiri Cheese cubes along with sugar and vanilla essence and add the remaining Dulce de Leche and combine well.
- Finally, fold the whipped cream with the cream cheese mix and layer over the arranged biscuits and spread evenly.
- Dust with cocoa powder.
- Pipe the whipped cream into a crescent shape by making a guideline using the back of a spoon and pipe accordingly.
- Finally pipe the Dulce de Leche for a pop of caramel color and set in the refrigerator overnight or at least 3-4 hours. (For better results keep overnight)
Ps: you may use store bought Dulce de Leche (cooked condensed milk) or you May cook the condensed milk in a pressure cooker submerged in water ( after removing the outer cover of the can ) for 3 whistles and allow to cool overnight.
