Baba de Camelo

Condensed milk does the heavy lifting here, with eggs rounding it out. A Portuguese snack that takes 30 minutes, start to finish. At 298 calories and 10g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Naturally vegetarian, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 1 can Condensed milk
• 5 Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• 1 tsp Cinnamon
• 1/4 cup Almonds

Steps

1. Simmer the sealed can of condensed milk 2 hours for dulce de leche — or use a pressure cooker for 40 minutes.
2. Cool the can completely before opening; hot dulce de leche erupts.
3. Separate the eggs; whisk the yolks into the caramel until glossy.
4. Whip the whites to soft peaks and fold in gently — the mousse should stay airy.
5. Whip the cream with sugar and fold through for a silky finish.
6. Chill 4 hours; serve with cinnamon and toasted almonds scattered over.
