Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT

A bit too rich, and the brandy flavor was a bit strong - but for me the recipe worked OK.

I made two mistakes in preparing this dish. First, I used two different sizes of ramekins - and so only the ones in the small ramekins were cooked properly. My second mistake was not having the water quite hot enough when I added it to the pan (for the water bath). That meant it took about 7 minutes extra for the flan to show the first signs of setting up.

This went well enough that I'd like to try the different variations, but maybe with a less rich milk mixture.
