Mishti Doi - Sweet Yogurt bengali style

Mishti doi stands next to Rosogolla and Sondesh in the bengali dessert line up. It is served at weddings and parties and is loved by all bengalees. This is again something you don't easily find outside India, hence the need to make it yourself if you want to have it. Don't get scared by the ingredients, have in small portions when no one is looking.

Ingredients: for 20 people

- 1 can (12 ounce) evaporated whole milk
- 1 can (14 ounce) sweetened condensed milk
- 11/4 can of whole milk yogurt. Pour into evaporated milk can for measure. 1 full can and then little less than half
- 2 tablespoons of brown sugar

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees fahrenheit
2. In a bowl add all the ingredients. Don't use the whole can of condensed milk, I use about 3/4th can
3. Whip the mixture by hand or power whisk
4. Pour the mixture in a corningware (or glass) square bowl,  about 6 inches square and 4 inches deep
5. Bake in the oven for 30 mins and turn the oven off. Leave the bowl in the oven for 2 hours.
6. Take out of the oven, let it cool for 30 minutes.
7. Chill it in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve
