Ingredients




cup sugar
1 can evaporated milk - (12 oz)
1 can sweetened condensed milk - (14 oz)
8 ounces cream cheese cubed, softened
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

1 Cook sugar in saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring, until dissolved, about 5 minutes. Continue to cook, but do not stir, until sugar caramelizes and becomes a rich, dark brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Pour into 9-inch cake pan, spreading evenly. Cool. 2 Set pan in a larger pan so there's at least 1 inch of space around sides of flan pan. Blend evaporated and condensed milks, cream cheese, eggs and vanilla in a blender. Carefully pour into prepared pan. Add about 1/2 inch water to larger pan. 3 Bake at 350 degrees until center of flan still jiggles a little when pan is shaken, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool, then chill at least 4 hours. Invert it onto serving plate, slice and serve. 4 This recipe yields 12 servings.
