Natillas is a from scratch soft fluffy custard and not Jello Pudding. It's made with whole milk, egg yolks, egg whites, sugar and vanilla. Make a stove top custard with egg yolks, sugar, milk and vanilla then fold in beaten egg whites. Top with cinnamon Google "New Mexico Natillas" 4 comp. recipe. - 6/3/13

I agree....this recipe does not do justice to the original Natillas and is nothing more than boxed pudding topped w/spices. Real Natillass is all natural and delicious! Note that the Spanish did not enter New Mexico until August of 1598 (414 yrs). Columbus did not leave Europe until 1492. - 12/11/12
