- Sharp knife
- Whisk or hand mixer
Ingredients
- 2 packages Maria cookies (or your favorite cookie)

- to taste chocolate chips for decoration
Instructions
- Prepare the instant flan mix using 500 ml of milk and let it cool to room temperature.
- Dip Maria cookies quickly in warm milk and arrange them in a removable mold to create an even base.
- Pour a layer of the flan mixture over the cookies, spreading gently. Repeat layering with cookies and flan until the mold is full, finishing with a layer of cookies on top.
- Heat the milk cream in a saucepan until warm, then stir in chopped black chocolate until smooth to make the ganache.

- Chill the dessert in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best results.
Notes
For a unique twist, consider swapping Maria cookies with graham crackers or digestive biscuits. If vegan, substitute dairy milk and cream for plant-based alternatives. To enhance flavor, toast the cookies lightly before soaking. Store covered in the fridge, and consume within 3–4 days for best freshness. Freezing individual slices is also an option for longer storage.
