The hot chocolate bread pudding that makes my Peruvian Christmas.
Peruvian hot chocolate is distinctive, but probably not as bold as Mexican hot chocolate. Delicately flavored with vanilla, cinnamon, and cloves, it’s made with bars of drinking chocolate and evaporated milk, the milk of choice in Peru. My dad never really learned to properly make it. He was too impatient to wait for chocolate to slowly melt into simmering milk. Instead, he would put the chocolate in a blender with milk and whir it until it looked homogenous.
Growing up, my aunt and uncle would sometimes come to visit us in December for at least a month. Since Peru is south of the equator, Christmas time coincided with my little cousin’s summer vacation, and my relatives would take advantage of this to come to Florida to enjoy the beaches and max out their credit cards at the many outlet malls. The years when we would celebrate with our extended family, my aunt would take over the preparation of the hot chocolate.
One year, I had leftover panetón and hot chocolate and decided to combine them to make a bread pudding. It didn’t come out as I had expected, but it encouraged me to keep experimenting. I finally came up with a winning recipe that uses a mixture of condensed milk and evaporated milk, which form the base of a traditional Latin American flan.
