Ingredients
  • 1 quart milk

  • 1 cup marsala wine
  • 4 tablespoons fernet branca

Preparation

To prepare the bunet
Bring the milk to a boil. Meanwhile, mix the sugar with eggs, cocoa powder, sugar and crumbled amaretto cookies. Pour in the hot milk and stir briefly. Add the marsala and fernet.

To prepare the caramel
Prepare the caramel by cooking the sugar with water until it turns an intense golden color. Place in the bottom of a 8" x 4" mold.

To complete the bunet
Pour the milk mixture into the mold filled with caramel mixture. Cook in bain-marie for 45 minutes or until the center of the pudding feels firm under the pressure of a finger. Remove from bain-marie and place aside to cool off.

Serving

To serve, unmold the bunet upside down, and serve with the caramel sauce taken from the cooking.
