Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. 2 Melt sugar in a heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Cook until sugar becomes a golden brown syrup, about 10 minutes. Pour immediately into a round baking dish, swirling so caramel syrup coats the sides of the dish. Set aside to cool.
  3. 3 Place egg yolks into a blender and blend on medium speed for 5 minutes. Add condensed milk, 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk, and egg whites. Continue to blend until well combined. Pour over hardened caramel syrup in the baking dish, then cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  4. 4 Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the baking dish on the towel inside the roasting pan, then place the roasting pan on the oven rack. Fill the roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
  5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted 1 inch from the edge comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. The center of flan will still be soft. Allow flan to cool before unmolding onto a plate. Refrigerate before serving.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. 2 Prepare a bain-marie, or water bath, by filling a 9-inch heat-proof container with water.
  3. 3 Melt sugar in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until melted, 7 to 10 minutes; be careful to keep it from burning. Pour sugar into a flan mold, coating the sides to ensure that the egg/milk mixture in the next step will not touch the container.
  4. 4 Pour sweetened condensed milk into a bowl. Fill the empty can with milk and add to the bowl; stir in eggs and vanilla extract. Blend well. Fold mixture with a spatula or tap against the counter to remove air bubbles.
  5. 5 Pour milk mixture into the slightly cooled flan mold. Put the lid on and place inside the water bath; don't let the water go over the rim.
  6. 6 Bake the quesillo in the bain-marie in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Pry lid open with a knife carefully; continue baking until set, about 15 minutes more.
  7. 7 Let quesillo cool to room temperature, at least 25 minutes; refrigerate 8 hours to overnight. Slide a knife around the edges of the mold to loosen and invert onto a plate.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine milk, sugar, sweetener, and vanilla in the biggest pot you have. Place over medium heat and stir until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and bring to a rolling boil.
  2. 2 As soon as it boils, combine water and baking soda in a small bowl and stir to dissolve; don't worry if it doesn't dissolve completely.
  3. 3 Remove pot from the stove and place in the sink. Add baking soda mixture and stir vigorously as milk will expand rapidly-be prepared! When the mixture returns to its original volume, return the pot to the stove and bring to a very brisk simmer. It may concern you that it will scorch, but it should be practically boiling. Cook, checking and stirring occasionally, until it turns a deep golden brown, about 1 hour.
  4. 4 After the mixture has turned dark caramel in color, check it more frequently. The longer you cook it after the color change, the thicker it will be. For a consistency similar to caramel, cook for another 15 minutes. For a thicker, spreadable consistency, cook for another 20 to 25 minutes. For a candy-like consistency, cook it even longer. Just remember that it will thicken up tremendously after cooling.
  5. 5 Once you're ready, pour the caramel into a plastic container with a lid, or pour into jars. It can be kept without refrigeration, but with refrigeration it is good for many weeks.

Instructions

  1. 1 Heat milk in the microwave or on the stovetop to 110 degrees F (43 degrees C).
  2. 2 Place warm milk, egg, butter, flour, white sugar, icing sugar, salt, and yeast in a bread machine in the order listed. Run Dough cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.
  3. 3 Divide the dough into 4 or 5 equal parts depending on the size of the roscones you want to make. Take one piece of dough and roll it into a roll about 1/2 inch wide. Repeat with remaining dough. Flatten the rolls and fill evenly with guava paste.
  4. 4 Roll the dough once again so the filling is in the middle and not seen from the outside. Take both ends and paste them together, forming a circle with a hole in the middle (like a doughnut). Place in an oiled baking pan, leaving room to grow. With a sharp, non-serrated knife, make some slits on the top just deep enough that you can see a bit of the filling.
  5. 5 Once all your roscones are done, cover and let rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  6. 6 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  7. 7 Brush beaten eggs over each roscone and sprinkle coarse sugar on top.
  8. 8 Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack before serving.
