Yield Makes 1 eight-inch flan

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup sugar
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 1/3 cups milk
3 large eggs

Steps:

  • Fill a roasting pan with 2 inches of water. Transfer to oven; preheat to 325 degrees. Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside.
  • Cook sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly and washing down sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystals from forming, until sugar dissolves. Continue cooking until sugar turns a deep caramel color. Immediately dip bottom of pan in ice-water bath, then pour caramel into an 8-inch round cake pan.
  • Blend condensed milk, milk, and eggs in a blender until smooth. Pour into cake pan. Transfer to roasting pan, placing it in the water. Bake flan until just set and golden brown on top, about 1 hour.
  • Transfer flan to a wire rack to cool. Chill 6 hours or preferably overnight.
  • Just before serving, run a knife around edge of flan. Set a serving plate over pan; invert. Spoon sauce from pan over flan.
