Brazilian Condensed Milk Flan - Pudim!

Brazil has a special dessert that has entered the homes and hearts of many people around the world: Pudim! For those more familiar with the old puddings', just like the pronunciation is fuller and smoother (less puh-dh-eeng and more pul-jh-eem), this is a smoother, creamier version of a flan.

It's a gorgeous circle of a sweet, cool condensed milk cloud, surrounded by a beautiful caramel syrup that is baked with the flan. Truly, godly. Now, this recipe takes a little bit of work, or rather, some waiting time, but the steps themselves are pretty simple and I am here to tell you: So. Worth. It.

Theres no better Sunday dessert.
