Step by Step guide

Step 1

Beat the canned chestnut puree with chestnut paste and butter using a mixer until it reaches a thick cream consistency.

Step 2

Add sugar to the chestnut mixture and mix thoroughly.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, lightly whisk together 2 eggs and 6 yolks, then pour into the chestnut mixture. Mix until homogeneous.

Step 4

Add cream, rum, and vanilla to the egg-chestnut mixture and mix very thoroughly again.

Step 5

Pour the prepared mixture into individual ceramic baking dishes (approximately 125-175 ml in volume) and place in an oven preheated to 329°F. Bake for about 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of the dishes. Remove from the oven when the surface of the flans has formed a firm crust.
