The story behind

The mixed flan is the perfect ending to any meal looking to evoke nostalgia. What makes this version special is the balance between the silkiness of the custard and the contrast of its sides: the dulce de leche adds density and sweetness, while the cream softens every bite. It is a dish that, despite its simplicity, requires precision in baking to achieve that smooth texture without bubbles. A true classic that never fails.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Prepare a smooth caramel with part of the sugar and coat the bottom of the molds.
  2. 2
    Mix the milk with the remaining sugar, eggs, and vanilla without over-beating to avoid bubbles.
  3. 3
    Pour the mixture into the molds and bake in a water bath (baño María) at 160°C for about an hour.
  4. 4
    Let it cool completely before unmolding.
  5. 5
    Serve with a generous dollop of dulce de leche and another of whipped cream on the sides.
