Latin Flan
Description
The recipe won't take much time. This is a very delicious dessert, easy to prepare, and it adorns every festive table in Spain. Just make sure to prepare it in advance, as the dessert needs to chill in the refrigerator. There's a variation of serving the pudding not in a large mold, but in individual portions. The flan doesn't need any decoration—it looks delicious all by itself. Serve chilled.
