Leche Asada Con Queso Recipes

LECHE ASADA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour the milk into a saucepan along with the lemon zest and cinnamon sticks. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, and cook for 5 minutes. Turn heat off, and allow to steep for 15 minutes.
• Gently beat the eggs and sugar together until the sugar has dissolved. Slowly beat in 1 cup of the hot milk, a little at a time, until it has been incorporated. Stir the egg mixture back into the hot milk, pour in the pisco, and mix until well combined.
• Pour the custard through a fine mesh sieve into a 2-quart ceramic casserole dish to remove the lemon zest and cinnamon. Bake in preheated oven until set, and browned on top, about 30 minutes. Chill before serving.

LECHE ASADA CON QUESO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Pour water into a large baking pan (the baking dish will go inside this water bath). Melt sugar over low heat until it disolves completely and pour it into the baking dish. I use an 8" round Corelle souffle dish. Set aside. Mix all milks, vanilla, eggs and cream cheese in blender or food processor. Pour into prepared baking dish. Put dish in pan with water which should be about half way up the dish. Bake for about 40 mins or until tester comes out clean. Cool for about 30 mins then put in refrigerator overnight. Run knife around dish and shake pan to loosen, invert into a plate, pour cherry pie filling on top. Can also be made doubling recipe and using a bundt pan.
