My family and some friends asked me to make flan. I said yes, but I wanted to surprise them by making a coffee flavored flan. Because what better way to celebrate Mother’s Day than with delicious flan?This cake was delicious and my Mom loved it! Hope you love it too!

Careful!!! To make this you will need parental supervision πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Ingredients

Flan Base

  • 1 can Lecherita
  • 1 can Leche evaporada
  • 6 eggs
  • You can make a smaller batch with 1/2 can of each and 3 eggs

Sugar syrup

  • 3/4 cup of any sugar in a pot
  • 3-4 drops of water

Tools

Procedure!

Separate your 6 eggs in two bowls: one for yolks and one for whites.

Separating yolks from whites

Then, for a creamy flan…Beat your eggs until you see this…

Ximena approved!

If you don’t want a super creamy cake move the bowl a little and if the eggs are still sliding it is ready to add in the yolks.

Remember to do it one by one and take 30 seconds in between!

Now it is time to add your leches: first the evaporated milk, then the condensed milk.

Divide what you put in, in two parts don’t put it all at once.

Finally, put it in the oven at 350-400 degrees and cook until fully done (you know this when your toothpick comes out clean).

Last, you can decorate with cherries and enjoy! πŸ’πŸŒΈ
