Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | Large Egg | |
| 1 | can | (14 Oz) Condensed Milk; Sweetened |
| 1 | can | (12 Oz.) Evaporated Milk |
| 6 | ounces | Cream Cheese |
| 1 | teaspoon | Vanilla Extract |
Directions
(1) Mix eggs, milk, and vanilla together.
(2) Soften the cream cheese and mix it together with the other ingredients.
Be careful not to over-mix the cream cheese or it will cause air pockets in the flan.
(3) Prepare a caramel by cooking ½ cup of sugar over a low flame until the sugar liquifies. Use a metal container to do this.
(4) Turn just enough caramel into the pan/ ramekin to cover the bottom.
(5) once the sugar is hard , pour the batter you prepared in steps 1& 2 into the pan/ ramekin.
(6) place pan/ ramekin into a bain-marie. The pan/ ramekin in which the ingredients are in should be ¾ submerged in water.
(7) Bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for about ½ hour. The flan is done when a knife/ toothpick inserted into it comes out clean.
Suggested Wine: Sangria
Serving Ideas : Serve slices inverted so the caramel is on top NOTES : This is an excellent cheesecake like dessert.
