Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
- 5 large eggs
- 1.5 tablespoons Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/4 cup of water over medium heat.
Cook the sugar-water mixture while stirring until the sugar dissolves. Then stop stirring and let it simmer until it turns into a golden amber caramel, about 8-10 minutes.
Immediately pour the caramel into the bottom of a flan mold or round baking dish, tilting the dish to evenly coat the bottom. Be careful as the caramel is very hot. Set aside to cool and harden.
In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, Kahlua, and vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed for 15-20 seconds until smooth.
Pour the blended mixture over the hardened caramel in the flan mold. Cover the mold tightly with aluminum foil.
Place the flan mold in a larger roasting pan. Pour hot water into the roasting pan until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan mold to create a water bath.
Carefully transfer the roasting pan to the oven and bake for 60 minutes or until the flan is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Remove the flan mold from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to fully set.
To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it. Place a large plate on top of the mold and quickly invert the flan onto the plate, letting the caramel sauce drip over the top.
Slice and enjoy your rich and flavorful Kahlua Flan!
