CAPIROTADA DE LECHE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Heat cinnamon sticks in the water and simmer for five to ten minutes.
- Discard cinnamon sticks; add piloncillo to water.
- Heat and stir until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat and cool completely. I put it in a glass measuring cup and stuck it in the freezer for a few minutes to hasten the process.
- Whisk the eggs, vanilla, evaporated milk and dulce de leche together in a bowl until smooth; stir in the chilled syrup and set aside.
- Spray an oblong baking dish with nonstick spray (or you could butter it).
- Layer half the bread in the bottom of the pan, tearing pieces to fit.
- Spoon some of the sauce over the bread, then sprinkle with half each of the cheese, almonds, and raisins.
- Repeat with the rest of the bread, cheese, almonds and raisins.
- Ladle the remaining sauce over all.
- Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon and brown sugar, then dot with butter.
- Bake, uncovered, for about 40 minutes or until set, and a knife can be inserted without liquid clinging to it.
- Serve warm with whipped cream, cream drizzle, or ice cream, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine water, 2 cups brown sugar, and cinnamon sticks together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and liquid has reduced into a syrup, about 15 minutes. Remove cinnamon sticks from syrup using a slotted spoon.
- Spread butter onto each toasted bread slice. Make 1 layer of buttered bread in a deep casserole dish or oven-proof stockpot. Sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves over bread layer. Sprinkle 1/4 the raisins, 1/4 the peanuts, 1/4 the remaining brown sugar, and 1/4 the Cheddar cheese over bread layer. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients. Pour cinnamon syrup over entire dish; cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Cool for 20 minutes before serving.
