Quindim is a rich, baked Brazilian custard, often recognized by its striking golden top. This version combines creamy egg yolks with coconut milk, desiccated coconut, and a hint of vanilla. Baking it gently in a water bath ensures a smooth, even set, and a good chill afterwards makes it easy to unmold and serve.
