Caramelized Coffee Flan image

Ooooh! Flan! With a carmelized crust....and a hint of coffee flavor...luscious! Only make when you have company, so you don't make a pig of yourself!! It's important to use a nice heavy saucepan to carmelize the sugar so it doesn't scorch or burn. Prep time does not include the 8 hour chill time!

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 egg yolks
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules

Steps:

  • Place the sugar in a small heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the sugar crystallizes into lumps (about 15 minutes). Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts and turns a light golden brown (about 15 minutes). Quickly pour the hot caramel mixture into an ungreased 8 inch round cakepan, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside. (The mixture will harden -- this is supposed to happen!).
  • Combine eggs and remaining ingredients in a large bowl; beat with a wire whisk until the coffee granules dissolve. Pour the egg mixture over the caramelized sugar in the cakepan.
  • Place the cakepan in a large shallow baking dish. Pour hot water into the baking dish to a depth of 1 inch. Cover with aluminum foil, and bake at 350 degrees for 55 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center of the flan comes out clean.
  • Remove pan from water, and let cool. Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
  • To serve, loosen the edge of the custard with a spatula, and invert onto a serving plate.

Overall, this flan was a good dessert. I would make it again, but I would make a few changes to the recipe.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my flan didn't turn out as expected. It was still edible, but not as good as I hoped.

I used a different type of coffee than the recipe called for and it turned out great. This flan is very versatile.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but this flan was still delicious. The caramel sauce was the perfect topping.

This flan was a bit too firm for my liking, but the flavor was good.

The texture of the flan was a bit grainy, but the flavor was good.
