CREAM CHEESE LECHE FLAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Heat sugar in a saucepan without stirring. Allow the sugar to caramelize slowly and evenly by swirling the pan. When the melted sugar has reached a dark amber color, pour it into an 8-inch cake pan and coat the bottom and sides. Use a thick pot holder while doing this because the caramel is very hot and will make the cake pan hot as well. Allow the caramel to cool until it has hardened.
• Combine eggs, condensed milk, water, cream cheese and vanilla. Whisk until well combined. You can also use a hand mixer, immersion blender, or a regular blender. Strain egg and cream cheese mixture straight into the cake pan with the hardened caramel.
• Place the cake pan in an oven-safe dish or pan and fill the pan up with water until it comes halfway through the cake pan. Place in the oven and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool on a baking rack. Run a knife around the edges and invert the leche flan onto a large serving plate.
