Flan Base

Caramel Sauce

Method

Caramel Sauce

1

Prepare the Caramel

In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Stir gently until the sugar is dissolved.

2

Cook the Caramel

Place the saucepan over medium heat. Allow the mixture to boil without stirring until it turns a golden brown color, about 8 to 10 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.

3

Set the Caramel

Quickly pour the caramel into the bottom of a round flan mold or individual ramekins, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

Flan Base

4

Blend the Ingredients

In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, brewed Vietnamese coffee, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and well combined.

5

Pour the Flan Mixture

Carefully pour the blended flan mixture over the hardened caramel in the mold or ramekins.

6

Prepare for Baking

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the flan mold in a larger baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the flan mold to create a water bath.

7

Bake the Flan

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the flan is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

8

Cool and Chill

Remove the flan from the water bath and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

9

Serve

To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it. Invert onto a serving plate to release the flan from the mold. Slice and enjoy!
