Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Place sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until sugar melts into a golden caramel, about 10 minutes. Pour into a ring mold, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.
Step 3
Pour condensed milk into a blender. Fill the empty can with milk and pour in, twice. Add eggs. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour over caramel in the mold.
Step 4
Place mold in a larger baking pan. Fill baking pan with hot water to a depth of 1 inch to make a water bath.
Step 5
Bake pudding in the preheated oven until set and firm to the touch, 60 to 90 minutes. Remove mold from the water bath and let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Unmold pudding carefully onto a plate and chill before serving, about 3 hours.
