with cold water, 3/4 cup of the sugar and vanilla. Stir thoroughly into
milk. Let stand at room temp until set. (About 1 hr.)
With sharp knife, cut straight through mixture to bottom of pan creating a
grid like pattern of 1 - 2 inch squares. Set pan over lowest heat and cook,
uncovered, until the chongs are white and tender-firm to the touch. (About
6 hrs.) Do not stir during this cooking time. Check mixture occasionally to
be sure it is not hot enough to cause motion in the pan, which will break
up chongos.

NOTES: Although cooking time is long for this dessert, once the initial
prep time is complete (about 25 minutes) and you allow for the standing
time, you then basically allow this 'pudding' to cook undisturbed for 6
hours so it's not an overall time consuming nor laborious task.
