To make this delicious dessert, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 egg
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup crushed gingersnap cookies
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a small saucepan, heat the granulated sugar over medium heat until it melts and turns a deep amber color. Pour the caramel into a ramekin or small baking dish and swirl to coat the bottom.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour the mixture over the caramel in the ramekin.
Place the ramekin in a baking dish and fill the dish with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekin. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the flan is set but still jiggles slightly in the center.
Remove the ramekin from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, sprinkle the crushed gingersnap cookies over the top of the flan.
The Caramel Flan with Gingersnap Topping is a beautiful dessert that is sure to impress your guests. The creamy flan is perfectly balanced by the spicy crunch of the gingersnap topping. This dish is best served chilled and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
