Ingredients

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 12 ounces evaporated milk
• 1 cup whole milk
• 5 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the granulated sugar, stirring continuously until it turns into a golden caramel. Be careful not to burn it.

Step 3

Immediately pour the caramel into a 9-inch round cake pan or a flan mold, tilting the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the caramel. Set aside and let it cool and harden.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Add the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whole milk to the bowl. Mix until well combined.

Step 6

Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Continue mixing until the batter is fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 7

Pour the mixture over the hardened caramel in the prepared pan.

Step 8

Place the cake pan inside a larger roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the cake pan to create a water bath.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until the center of the flan is set but still slightly jiggly.

Step 10

Remove the cake pan from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 11

To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it from the pan. Place a serving plate over the mold and quickly invert it, allowing the caramel to flow over the top.

Step 12

Slice and enjoy your Cheesecake Flan!
