👩🍳 How to Make Small Cake Flans in Glasses
Step 1: Make the Caramel (Optional)
- In a small saucepan, add sugar and water.
- Heat over medium heat until the sugar melts and turns golden brown. Do not stir — swirl the pan gently instead.
- Quickly pour the caramel into the bottom of each serving glass (use heatproof glasses).
- Set aside to cool and harden slightly.
Step 2: Prepare the Flan Mixture
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until smooth and pale.
- Warm the milk in a saucepan (don’t boil it), then slowly pour it into the egg mixture while whisking constantly.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve for an ultra-smooth texture.
