Tanya's Cream Cheese Flan
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Put sugar in a HEAVY sauce pan over medium heat. Stir constantly until all of the sugar is caramelized. Immediately poor into the bottom of a 3qt round casserole dish. It is critical to cover the entire bottom of dish. (Melt more sugar if needed...)
- 2
In a blender combine cream cheese, eggs, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla. Blend for a few minutes until completely mixed.
- 3
Poor mixture on top of carmel in the casserole dish. Bake in a water bath (a 9 X 11 baking dish works well) at 350 degrees for at least 90 minutes (or until a knife comes out clean).
- 4
To serve - let chill in the pan overnight. When ready to serve fill the kitchen sink with hot water about half way up the casserole dish. Let the dish sit in the hot water for at least 10 minutes.
- 5
Remove dish from water and run a flexible knife (a cheep steak knife does the trick) around the inside of the dish to release the flan.
- 6
Place a large plate or platter (larger than the diameter of the casserole) over the top of the casserole. Hold this tight and flip the casserole upside down onto the plate. Let this sit for a minute. Slowly lift the casserole off of the plate to reveal the flan with a nice Carmel glaze.

This is a deliciously creamy, smooth flan. It's not too sweet for someone who isn't a fan of sweets, yet good enough for a sweet tooth like myself :-) v.gomez160 -

This flan is a super easy way to make a creamy cream cheese based flan. It's a recipe that's been around for as long as I can remember. I have read that this particular simple flan that includes cream cheese originated in Puerto Rico, but whereever it was invented it is a delicious creamy smooth version that is simple to put together.
