Steps:
- 1. MAKE THE CARAMEL:
- 2. Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees.
- 3. Arrange 6 ramekins in a roasting pan or a large baking dish.
- 4. In a small saucepan, mix sugar and 1/2 cup water. Cook over medium high heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Stop stirring and increase heat to high and cook until mixture caramelizes and turns to a light amber color.
- 5. Remove pan from heat, gradually and very carefully add remaining water. Stir to blend.
- 6. Carefully pour hot caramel evenly into all of the ramekins. Set aside.
- 7. MAKE CHOCOLATE FLAN:
- 8. Place chocolate in a large bowl and set aside.
- 9. Heat the milk in a large saucepan until small bubbles begin to form around the edge but not boiling.
- 10. Remove from heat and pour over the chocolate, let stand for 1 minute then whisk until melted and smooth.
- 11. In another large bowl whisk together eggs and sugar until blended, gradually whisk in the chocolate mixture, liqueur, vanilla extract and espresso mixture.
- 12. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl and divide evenly into the 6 ramekins.
- 13. Pour hot water into the roasting pan so that it comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- 14. Bake the flan in a water bath for 35 minutes or until the center is just set.
- 15. Transfer the ramekins to a wire rack to cool completely.
- 16. Chill until ready to serve.
- 17. MAKE DULCE DE LECHE CREAM:
- 18. In a medium saucepan, heat milk to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add sugar and baking soda.
- 19. Simmer for about 25 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon until milk becomes thick and resembles a light caramel sauce.
- 20. Gently fold milk mixture into the whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- 21. TO SET UP:
- 22. Run a paring knife around the inner edge of the flan to loosen. Dip the bottom of the ramekin in very hot water for about 15 seconds.
- 23. Invert onto a dessert plate, letting the caramel drip over the top of the flan. Serve each flan with a dollop of Dulce De Leche cream on top.
