CREAM CHEESE FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cook 1 cup sugar in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat, and cook, stirring constantly, 5 minutes or until sugar melts and turns a light golden brown. Quickly pour hot caramelized sugar into a 2-quart flan dish. Using oven mitts, tilt dish to evenly coat bottom and sides. Let stand 5 minutes. Sugar will harden.
• Whisk together egg yolks and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl.
• Process egg whites, cream cheese, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in blender until smooth. Stir egg white mixture into egg yolk mixture. Pour mixture through a wire-mesh strainer into a large bowl; pour custard over caramelized sugar.
• Place dish in a large shallow pan. Add hot water to pan to a depth of 1/3 up sides of dish.
• Bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Remove dish from water bath; cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and chill at least 3 hours.
• Run a knife around edge of flan to loosen; invert onto a serving plate.

CHEESE FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• To make the caramel, add the sugar and 2 tablespoons water to a pan and heat over medium-low heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Once the sugar is dissolved, do not stir anymore. Cook until the mixture turns amber brown, about 10 minutes. Brush down the sides of the pan as needed with a wet pastry brush to avoid crystallization. When the caramel is done, pour evenly into six 3/4- to 1-cup ramekins.
• Add the cream cheese to the bowl of a stand mixer and whip until smooth. Add the condensed milk, regular milk, cinnamon, vanilla, salt and eggs and beat until smooth and the ingredients are incorporated. Divide evenly among the ramekins over the caramel.
• Bring some water to a boil in a kettle. Place the ramekins in a large roasting pan and pour boiling water into the pan until it reaches about halfway up the ramekins. Bake until the custard is set, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely, then refrigerate until chilled.
• To remove the flans from the ramekins, run a knife around the edge of each flan and invert onto individual serving plates. Garnish with the mixed berries.

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Arrange 8 (6-ounce) oven-safe custard or dessert cups in a large roasting pan. Stir sugar and water in a small saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and boil without stirring until liquid is a deep golden brown, brushing down sides of saucepan with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar from crystallizing, about 12 minutes. Quickly pour syrup into prepared cups.
• In a blender, combine condensed milk, cream cheese, eggs, and vanilla. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Transfer to an 8-cup measuring cup or large bowl. Whisk in evaporated milk. Divide custard equally among prepared cups. Transfer roasting pan to oven. Pour enough water into roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the custard cups.
• Bake until sides are firmly set and only the very center of custards jiggle slightly when cups are gently shaken, about 45 minutes (custards will firm up as they cool). Remove cups from pan, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and refrigerate until cold, at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours. Run small sharp knife around sides of custards. Invert each cup onto a dessert plate, shaking gently to release custard from cups. Drizzle caramel sauce over custard. Serve cold.

• For the filling, cream together the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Spread over the cooled crust. Arrange the fruit on the cream cheese filling and refrigerate.
• For the glaze, mix together the sugar and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Whisk in the water, orange juice, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil gently for one minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
