How to Make Mexican Coffee Pudding With Kahlua Whipped Cream

In a heavy medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup instant coffee granules, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
Whisk in 2 cups whole milk and 1 cup heavy cream.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking constantly. Be careful not to burn the bottom.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 minute, whisking constantly.
Remove from heat and divide the pudding evenly among 6 small ramekins or dessert bowls.
Cover the bowls and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to chill completely.
While the pudding chills, prepare the whipped cream: In a chilled small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup heavy cream and 1 tablespoon Kahlua until stiff peaks form.
Spoon the Kahlua whipped cream generously atop each chilled pudding.
Sprinkle with an extra pinch of cinnamon before serving and enjoy!
