Tim Love's Tuaca Cappaccino Flan

1 tablespoon dark roasted espresso beans, ground
¼ cup Tuaca
1 fresh vanilla bean
1 quart 40 percent fat heavy whipping cream
8 large egg yolks
1 ½ cups sugar
1 lemon

In a 2 quart saucepan, add 1 cup sugar and ½ cup water, plus juice of half a lemon. Heat on high; do not stir. Boil mixture until golden brown, and allow to cool off of heat for 30 seconds, or until mixture becomes smooth.

Pour mixture into 8 (5 oz.) ceramic ramekins, covering just the bottom of the ramekin. Allow to cool.

In mixing bowl, add 8 egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar, and whisk by hand.

In a saucepan over low heat, combine Tuaca, espresso beans, heavy whipping cream, and vanilla bean. Continue to heat, stirring occasionally until mixture begins to let off steam. Heat for 5 minutes, and slowly whip mixture into bowl with yolk mixture. Mixture will create a small amount of foam, which needs to be skimmed off.

Pour mixture into ramekin on top of caramel sauce.

Bake in water bath at 300 degrees for 1 hour 40 minutes in a conventional oven.

Allow to cool in the refrigerator for 3 hours.

To serve, cut around edge of ramekin with small pairing knife, and slip onto plate. Caramel sauce will be on top of flan.

Artist of the Month - Mark McKinney
Playing Live at the White Elephant on 8/31 @ 9pm.

Mark McKinney’s music evokes good times, plain and simple. Whether going to a backyard kegger, painting the town red with your rowdy friends, or simply being with those people who know you better than anyone else, Mark McKinney’s music takes you there. Equipped with a positive outlook and a true passion for creating and sharing music, McKinney is bursting onto the scene and having the time of his life.

For his debut solo album, Get It On, McKinney took from his own experiences (as well as those of his closest friends and family) to produce a collection of songs that has been appropriately described as “foot-stompin’, sing-a-long, ornery country with a strong melody.” The album is, in Mark’s own words, “a journey through the mind of a Southern man.” And yet something in the fun and honesty applies to everyone – we can all relate to and take a little something from his music. McKinney, born and raised in Big Spring, TX, distinguishes himself from the typical “rockin’ country” artist by drawing from a wide range of influences. He credits his father for instilling in him an appreciation for upbeat, energetic songs. He blends his musical tastes as easily as drinking beer and eating barbecue, and he admits to a diverse musical background. “Although I grew up listening to country legends like Willie Nelson and Charlie Daniels, I was also heavily influenced by rock and pop.” This blend of influences has helped secure Mark a unique place on the Texas scene – and helped keep him from getting boxed into one genre.

For Get It On, Mark teamed up with his best friend, Nashville-based producer Rob Dennis (Lynyrd Skynyrd,the fray,Cross Canadian Ragweed) who, along with producing Get It On, recently formed the independent record label Super Loud Music – the label Mark now calls home. In preparation for Get It On’s completion, Mark had been busy shuttling between Nashville and Austin – stopping only long enough to rock Texas country fans with his live show.

While working on his debut CD, Mark teamed up with Kevin Fowler. Together the pair wrote a song called “What's Your Point,” which is slated to appear on Fowler's own upcoming record. Mark's live show can best be described as a high energy, full throttle experience. He is constantly changing his live show and playing a full schedule of dates across Texas and Oklahoma. Mark is a star on the rise with the experience and attitude needed to bring great new music to the masses. Mark McKinney is blazing onto the scene in a big way, and bringing the good times with him.
