Preparation

Step 1: Prepare the caramel

  1. In a pan over medium heat, place the sugar.
  2. Let the sugar cook without stirring until you get a slightly brown liquid caramel. Make sure that the color of the caramel is not too dark otherwise your caramel will be burned.
  3. Pour around 1 tablespoon of the caramel into each ramekin (of 9 cm diameter) and spread it evenly to cover the entire bottom surface.

Step 2: Prepare the flan

  1. In a pan over medium heat, boil the milk.
  2. In a bowl, place the eggs, vanilla sugar, and salt. Mix well using a whisk.
  3. Add sweetened condensed milk and melted chocolate and continue mixing.
  4. Add the hot milk to the egg mixture little by little while mixing until you get a homogeneous texture.
  5. Pour the mixture into your ramekins over the caramel.

Step 3: Cook the flan

  1. Preheat the oven at 180°C.
  2. Place the ramekins in a large mold.
  3. Pour boiling water into the large mold until you reach halfway up the ramekins.
  4. Cook the flan for about 45 minutes until it has a golden surface while remaining flickering in the center, but if you insert a knife, it will come out clean.
  5. Remove the mold from the oven, then remove the ramekins from the hot water and let them cool at room temperature.
  6. Place the flan in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  7. When serving, run a thin knife around the edges. Place a plate upside down on top of the ramekin, then invert.
