Mami’s Flan de Queso

 Prep Time: 30 mins | Cook Time: At least 1 hr | Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients: 

4 eggs1 14 oz can evaporated milk1 12 oz can condensed milk1 tsp. vanilla extract4 oz cream cheese1/2 cup sugar (up to one cup, to taste)A dash of cinnamon (optional)

Directions:



- Choose a large glass baking pan for the water bath and a smaller glass baking pan that fits inside the first pan for your flan.


- Melt the sugar, water, and vanilla. Let this simmer until it becomes a caramel color, sticky liquid without any lumps. Try to ignore the pot altogether for 10-15 minutes. It's best not to stir.


- Carefully pour this caramel mixture into the smaller pan. Use a silicone spoon to spread it evenly across the bottom of the pan and halfway up the sides.


- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.


- Combine all flan ingredients in blender and blend together.


- Place the larger baking dish in the oven carefully. Then, place the smaller baking dish with the caramel inside the larger dish.


- Pour the flan mixture into the smaller glass baking dish in the oven.


- For the water bath, pour water into the larger baking dish until it reaches 3/4 the height of the dish.


- Bake for at least 1 hour. Check that the flan is no longer liquid before taking it out of the oven. It will still jiggle.


- Take it out of the oven and chill until cooled completely, at least 6 hours. The sides of the flan will disconnect from the dish. Flip the flan onto a nice platter or dish for serving.
