Whats a good Mexican dessert recipe?

Anything like fried cakes with cinnamon sugar on top or something. I'm asking cause I need to take something to my Spanish class party.Whats a good Mexican dessert recipe?
My stepfather is hispanic, the most common dessert I ever saw mexicans eat was a desert called milk rice. It's really good, not to sweet, but creamy!! Very good. You can use long or medium grain rice, I prefer medium, it makes it that much creamier. It's simple. Boil about two cups of rice, with six cups of milk(3 parts liquid per cup), add a few cinnamon sticks for more flavor. Bring to a boil, turn down heat to med and simmer, you'll know when the rice is cooked well when it absorbs most of the milk, stir occasionally. Immedietly after that, add a can of condensed milk, three cups of regular milk, 1/2 cup sugar, cook it about 5 min more until it is hot, stirring to mix. You can add a tsp of vanilla flavoring to it too. Take out the cinnamon sticks. Serve in bowls hot!





You can cook it how you like. It's really good, this is just my recipe for it.


Enjoy!
