This latest recipe we made is a coffee flavored custard that got such raving reviews, it shocked me. As my son finished his, he looked at me and said it may be his favorite in a long time…and…is there more? I mean what more can you ask for right?! π
This dessert is not hard to make, although it does take time and has a lot to do with the espresso beans haha. It had me buying them which was a first, crushing them, caramelizing them and not getting alarmed when they smoke, and then straining them from the milk/cream. The beans are the integral part of this dessert, although I don’t think it matters what kind you choose. I think this dessert will be a success with whichever you use.
I mistakenly described this dessert to my husband as something like “coffee flavored flan”…he was not that eager to try it based on that description haha but did, and absolutely loved it…everyone loved it and was asking when I could make it again. π
