Brazilian Milk Pudding, also known as 'pudim de leite condensado', is a popular dessert in Brazil, often served at celebrations and family gatherings. This sweet and creamy dish is made with condensed milk, regular milk, sugar, and eggs, and is baked in a water bath to create a smooth texture. The caramelized sugar sauce at the bottom of the dish adds a touch of bitterness to balance out the sweetness of the pudding itself.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C) and grease a medium-sized baking dish with butter or oil.
2.	Melt the sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until it caramelizes to a golden brown color.
3.	Pour the caramel into the baking dish, and spread it around to coat the bottom evenly.
4.	In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, milk, and eggs, until the mixture is smooth.
5.	Pour the mixture over the caramel in the baking dish, and cover it with aluminum foil.
6.	Place the baking dish in a larger dish, filled with about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water.
7.	Bake the pudding for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
8.	Once the pudding is done, remove it from the oven and cool it in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or until it is completely chilled.
9.	To serve, run a knife around the edge of the dish to loosen the pudding, then invert it onto a plate and serve.
