Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place 1 cup sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook gently without stirring, but shake occasionally until sugar is melted. Continue cooking until sugar turns golden brown, then pour into a large glass baking dish. Rotate and tilt the dish to spread caramel evenly over the bottom. Set aside for caramel to cool and harden, about 15 minutes.
- Add condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, milk, coconut, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar to a blender. Blend until smooth, about 3 minutes. Pour over hardened caramel in the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until custard is set, about 45 minutes. Allow flan to cool for 30 minutes at room temperature. Run a knife around the edges of the dish to separate the flan from the sides. Refrigerate until completely chilled, 8 hours to overnight.
- To serve, carefully invert flan onto a rimmed serving plate; let caramel sauce flow over flan.
