My whole family loves this baked ham that's topped with brown sugar and baked with moist heat. So delicious!

- 1 bone-in ham , 12-pound
- 0.5 cups whole cloves
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 4 cups water , or as needed

Pack the top with a layer of brown sugar.

Pour enough water into the bottom of the roasting pan to come to a 1-inch depth; cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.

Brazilian Passion Fruit Mousse (Maracuja)
This is Brazilian favorite (and an old family recipe), and takes no cooking at all. It's a little tart and tangy for those of you who don't like your desserts to be too sweet.
