Hey Tom,

Do you maybe mean Tembleque? They serve it in Puerto Rico. If so...

1-1/2 Cup Coconut Milk
1/7 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Cup Sugar
1/5 Cup Cornstarch
Ground Cinnamon

In a saucepan, combine coconut milk, salt, sugar and cornstarch. Cook over
medium to high heat until a soft consistency is reached, stirring
continuously with a wooden spoon to avoid lumps. Lower heat and cook for an
additional 5 minutes, stirring the mixture occasionally. Pour mixture into
a 1-liter square aluminum mold. Let mixture cool and refrigerate for 1-1/2
hours. Sprinkle powdered cinnamon over the chilled tembleque. Cut in
sections and serve.

On the Star Princess, one luncheon we had a dessert we really enjoyed. I
asked its name, and the waiter said it was something like "Balacutta or
Ballacutta." The dessert is about the consistency of jello, but pure
white and has a milky flavor. The waiter said it had no gelatin in it,
but was just made from milk, eggs and sugar.

I've tried Googling for the recipe, but obviously have an incorrect
spelling of the word and cannot come up with an alternative that generates
a hit. Do any of you all possibly know the correct name or better yet, of
a recipe?
