Baba de Camelo

If you're in a whirlwind of multitasking, getting everything ready for ´Xmas Eve and hardly find the time to get it all done on time this is a super delicious treat that will do the trick in a blink of an eye. It is a famous Portuguese conventual's confectionary that looks like a cream, with a very light texture, slightly resembling a mousse. The flavour is amazing specially when mixed with that of the roasted almonds, but it has to be served really cold so that it doesn't taste overly sweet. Another bonus is the preparation time [10 minutes tops]and the result which is absolute success. Wish you a sweet Christmas!  

Ingredients:

• 1 can of cooked condensed milk
• 6 eggs
• chopped toasted almonds

Separate the whites from the yolks. Beat the egg yolks and add the cooked condensed milk, mixing  with a wooden spoon until you get a homogeneous cream. Beat the egg whites and addthem gently to the mixture. Pour the "baba de camelo" into individual bowls or into a large bowl and refrigerate until serving. Sprinkle to taste with toasted almonds.
