How to make Dulce del cielo, a dessert that not only has an innovative name, but its exquisite flavor and texture will transport you to a corner of delight and serenity, as if you were tasting a piece of heaven itself.
This delicacy, despite its simplicity, manages to masterfully articulate a variety of ingredients, achieving a perfect balance between sweetness and texture.
How to make Dulce del cielo Here are the ingredients!
For the mass
- 4 eggs
- 1 and 1/2 cups of grated coconut
- 1 cup of corn flour
- 2 cups of sugar
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 cup of whole milk
- 3 tablespoons of wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons of butter
Heavenly Coverage
- A can of condensed milk (sweetened)
- 100 grams of grated coconut
Procedure
- Start by mixing the condensed milk with the grated coconut in a container. Once they are perfectly integrated, set aside this heavenly combination.
- Then, in your mixer, add the eggs, milk, flours, sugar, corn flour, butter and grated coconut. Beat until you obtain a homogeneous and smooth mixture. The consistency may seem a little runny to you, but don’t worry, everything is under control.
- The next step is the yeast. Add it carefully, mixing gently with a wooden spoon or spatula to ensure incorporation without losing air.
- Make sure you have a rectangular mold (approximately 30 cm x 20 cm) that has been previously greased and floured. Gently pour your mixture into it.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C and bake for 40 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.
- When you remove it, still hot, bathe it with the heavenly syrup that you prepared at the beginning. This step guarantees deep flavor and characteristic moisture.
- It is essential to be patient and wait for it to cool in order to enjoy this culinary masterpiece. The result is a delicacy that will elevate you, metaphorically, to the heights of heaven itself. Enjoy!
