- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 5 min
- Makes: 1 serving (120 g)
- Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients
- 90 g Dulce de leche
- 20 g Egg yolks, raw
- 10 g Graham crackers
Method
- Warm the dulce de leche (a ready-made stand-in for caramelized condensed milk) gently in a small pan just until soft and pourable.
- In a separate small bowl set over a pan of simmering water, whisk the egg yolks for 4-5 minutes until pale and thickened; this cooks them to a safe, thickened stage.
- Fold the warm caramel into the whisked yolks a little at a time until fully combined and glossy.
- Spoon into a small glass or cup and chill for at least 1 hour until set to a soft mousse.
- Crumble the graham crackers (a stand-in for Maria biscuits) over the top just before serving.
