Pudim de leite

My husband served his mission in Brasil and of course loved the food. They have this delicious flan/pudding stuff with a caramel sauce. You can get this at Tucanos or Rodizios (Brasilian grills). A few weeks ago the kids and I went camping with my family and so he made Sunday dinner for us because he knew I would be way too exhausted. I really appreciated it too! He made chicken and beans and rice and then dessert.
