Mexican Flan


I. Love. Flan. This recipe I got off of Recipezaar and it's better than some flans I've had at restaurants. Very simple and easy to make. The recipe can be found here: http://www.recipezaar.com/Mexican-Flan-Baked-caramel-Custard-12354

Slight adjustments: You WANT to put 1-2 tablespoons of water into the caramelized layer (heated sugar), or the top will come out like a hard glass sheet! I also did not put orange rind and added a little extra vanilla extract. Actually, thinking about making this one again tonight with MEXICAN vanilla extract. (Real yummy Mexican flan calls for authentic ingredients!) I just bought some in Mexico and it's so much more aromatic than the American vanilla extracts...
