Portuguese Cream

Instructions

  1. To measure the milk, I use the empty condensed milk can. First separate the eggs. Then put the egg yolks in a saucepan with the condensed milk and normal milk. Heat slowly and carefully while stirring until the liquid has thickened (this can take a few minutes. Please stir well so that the mixture does not hit!).
  2. Remove from the hotplate and let cool down. Beat the egg whites with the vanilla sugar and a pinch of salt until stiff. Whip the cream until stiff and fold in the finished egg whites. Crumble the biscuits into small pieces.
  3. First layer a layer of biscuits, then a layer of milk mass and then the cream protein mass in a mold, then start again with the biscuit, etc. I always put a leftover biscuit crumb on the top layer of the cream protein mass, it looks better than without it. Then chill for at least 2 hours (it tastes best pulled through).

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
