Meet the Cook: If you're unfamiliar with flan, think of it as a tasty variation on custard. One warning, though - it's very filling. A small slice of flan goes a long way!

Some tips: when caramelizing the sugar stir it continually until it is thin like liquid & make sure the baking dish is warm when pouring in the caramelized sugar; also, when the flan is done baking allow it to rest in the oven (with the heat turned off) until the oven cools to room temperature then refrigerate it overnight. It will turn out perfect!

I made this for book club and all the ladies loved it. Love the creamy texture. Best of all, it was much easier to make than I expected. I will absolutely make this again.

I made this for my children and grandchildren and they loved it, which was a surprise since they love the tradional spanish flan, which I also make. But they prefer this version to the other. My husband is not a flan lover but he taste it since everyone was saying how good it was and he also loved it. He said it does not have that egg custard consistency, which he hates.

Monica, did you refrigerate overnight like the recipe stated? I can't rate this recipe, I did not make it.

Where did I go wrong? I followed the directions as instructed. I left the flan in the oven for 60 min. It looked perfect...golden brown jiggling only a tiny bit. But after letting it cool down, when I turned it around to unmold it was completery raw inside, everything fell out of the dish. It ended up down the sink drain.Monica.Houston, TX
