Simple and Creamy Coffee Flan without Eggs

How to Make Coffee Cream Flan

• 1

  Cook the milk mixture

  First, add 600ml of fresh milk, 35gr of cornstarch, 1/6 teaspoon of salt, and 40gr of sugar into a pot. Place it on the stove and cook on high heat until the milk boils.

  While cooking, stir continuously to dissolve the sugar and cornstarch completely.

  Tip:

  • Stir continuously close to the bottom to prevent the milk from burning.
  • Do not cook too long, or the milk will overcook and the final product will become hard.

  When the milk boils, lower the heat to medium and continuously stir until the mixture simmers gently and bubbles form. Next, reduce the heat to low and add 8g of vanilla sugar, stirring well.

  Then, add 25g of unsalted butter and continue stirring until the butter melts. When the mixture boils again, turn off the heat.

  Next, pour the cooked milk into a cup and let it cool.

  Make coconut coffee cream

  When the butter has completely melted, place the pot back on the stove and reduce the heat to the lowest setting. Divide the cooked coconut milk mixture into 3 – 4 parts, pouring in the coconut milk while stirring well to combine the ingredients.

  Once all the coconut milk mixture has been added, add 1 teaspoon of instant coffee and stir well, then increase to medium heat until you see the mixture boiling with bubbles, indicating completion.

  Completion

  Pour the coconut coffee cream mixture that you just cooked on top of the cooled milk in the glass from step 1.

  Tip: Allow the milk layer to cool down before adding the cream; otherwise, the two layers will mix together.

  Wrap the glass tightly with aluminum foil and let it cool completely outside, then refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
