Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h40m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup white sugar
8 large eggs
12 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
1 (10 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (15 ounce) can cream of coconut (such as Coco Lopez®)
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 tablespoon coconut-flavored rum (such as Bacardi® Coconut™)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, cook and stir sugar with a wooden spoon until melted and golden, about 10 minutes. Caramel is very hot. Very carefully pour the caramel into a 9-inch round, 3-inch deep baking dish. Swirl dish to cover bottom and sides. The caramel will harden as it cools.
  • Combine the eggs, cream cheese, and sweetened condensed milk in a blender. Cover, and blend on High until well combined; transfer to a large bowl. Pour the cream of coconut, coconut milk, evaporated milk, coconut-flavored rum, and vanilla extract into the blender; cover and blend on High until well combined. Pour into the bowl with the cream cheese mixture. Whisk until incorporated. Pour the flan mixture into the caramel-coated baking dish.
  • Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the filled baking dish on the towel, and place roasting pan in the preheated oven. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the flan is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Transfer to a wire rack; cool. Refrigerate flan until ready to serve.
  • To serve, run a knife around the edges of the pan and flip the flan out onto a serving platter. Spoon any caramel remaining in the baking dish over the flan.

BEST PUDIM DE COCO



Best Pudim De Coco image

This is an adaptation of a recipe from my ex's mother. It is a Brazilian-style coconut flan. This is always a crowd pleaser at a dinner party. Fat-free condensed milk works fine (and with 5 eggs and coconut milk its probably a better idea anyway.)

Provided by Transylmania

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (fat-free ok)
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
5 eggs

Steps:

  • Oil a tube pan or souffle dish. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan combine sugar and water. Heat over medium-high until sugar melts and turns golden brown. Pour the caramel into the oiled pan and let harden.
  • Heat oven to 350°F.
  • Whisk together the other ingredients. Pour into the caramel-lined pan. Cover with aluminum foil.
  • Fill a roasting pan halfway with hot water. Put the tube pan in the bain-marie and bake at 350 F for one hour, or until a knife inserted comes out clean.
  • With foil still on top, put the pudim into the refrigerator overnight.
  • Unmold onto a serving platter and serve. (If you have trouble with this try putting the bottom of the pan in warm water to loosen the caramel.

Tips:

  • Use fresh coconut milk for the best flavor. You can make your own coconut milk by blending coconut meat with water and straining it.
  • Don't overcook the flan. It should be cooked until it is just set in the center.
  • Let the flan cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly.
  • Serve the flan with a dollop of whipped cream or fresh fruit.
