Mais Con Yelo
Description
Mais Con Yelo consists of alternating layers of sweet corn kernels and shaved or crushed ice in a glass. The dessert is topped generously with crushed cornflakes for some crunch. A mixture of evaporated milk and condensed milk, sweetened to taste, is poured over the layered corn and ice, creating a creamy and sweet profile. Optionally, scoops of vanilla or mango-flavored ice cream are placed on top for additional richness and flavor.
The combination of sweet corn’s natural starchiness and mild flavor with the cold ice and milky sweetness results in a refreshing and textured treat. The crushed cornflakes add a pleasant crunch contrasting with the soft corn and melting ice. This dessert is often served chilled and enjoyed as a cooling snack or dessert in warm weather.
The recipe allows customizing sweetness with sugar and milk and adjusting the amount of ice and cornflakes for preferred texture.
