Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Ponche Crema (Venezuelan cream liqueur)
- 2.5 teaspoons Unflavored gelatin powder
- 0.25 cup Cold water
- 1 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, pour 1/4 cup of cold water and evenly sprinkle the unflavored gelatin powder over it. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom the gelatin.
2. While the gelatin is blooming, in a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk and sweetened condensed milk. Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until it warms up (do not let it boil).
3. Once the milk mixture is warm, add the bloomed gelatin and stir until completely dissolved. Remove from heat.
4. Stir in the Ponche Crema, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
5. Pour the mixture into a large mold or individual serving molds. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
6. To serve, unmold the gelatine by running a knife gently around the edges and inverting it onto a serving plate. If desired, sprinkle with a pinch of ground nutmeg for garnish before serving.
