Caramel-Cream Cheese Flan .........
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 cups
sugar, divided
-
7
egg yolks
-
1
(14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
-
1
(12-oz.) can evaporated milk
-
3/4 cup
milk
-
1 1/2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
-
1/8 teaspoon
salt
-
4
egg whites
-
1
(8-oz.) package cream cheese, softened
Preparation
- 1. Cook 1 cup sugar in a 9-inch round cake pan over medium heat,
stirring occasionally, 5 minutes or until sugar melts and turns golden
brown. Remove pan from heat, and let stand 5 minutes. (Sugar will
harden.)
- 2. Meanwhile, whisk together egg yolks and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl.
- 3. Process egg whites, cream cheese, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a
blender until smooth. Add 2 cups egg yolk mixture, and process until
smooth. Stir egg white mixture into remaining egg yolk mixture until
blended. Pour custard over caramelized sugar in pan.
- 4. Place cake pan in a large shallow pan. Add hot water to large pan to depth of one-third up sides of cake pan.
- 5. Bake at 350° for 50 to 60 minutes or until a knife inserted into
center of flan comes out clean. Remove pan from water; cool completely
on a wire rack (about 2 hours). Cover and chill 4 hours.
- 6. Run a knife around edge of flan to loosen; invert onto a serving
plate. (Once inverted, the flan will take about 30 seconds to slip from
the pan. Be sure to use a serving plate with a lip to catch the extra
caramel sauce.)
