Rum Raisin Flan

"This recipe takes the traditional rum raisin flavors and incorporates it into every Latinos' favorite dessert, the flan,” says chef and blogger Bren Herrera, author of Flanboyant Eats. “Using Zacapa in the recipe gives this flan an elegant and decadent touch.”

Private chef and acclaimed lifestyle blogger, Bren Herrera has a passion for all things food and entertainment. Born in Cuba and raised in the suburbs of D.C., Herrera says she grew up in a “very traditional Latin home with a huge dose of Cubanisms.” Her family influences include her grandmother, who grew all her herbs in her front yard in Havana, and her mother, who taught her how to use the pressure cooker, a kitchen tool that she swears by.
