Flan

For those who may not like flan... this is the only one I will eat.

Ingredients:
4 oz. cream cheese
6 eggs
1 reg can evap. milk
1 can sw. condensed milk
1 t. vanilla
1 c. sugar
1/2 t. salt


Directions:
For best results separate 6 eggs. Beat cream cheese and egg yolks together. Add milk and vanilla. Whip egg whites to soft peaks and add salt. Fold in whites slowly to yolk/egg mixture. Set aside. Put sugar in a fry pan and melt on medium heat. Stir CONSTANTLY with a non-meltable spoon (made that mistake once...). When the sugar is barely melted, pour into a deep (preferably 3-4 inches deep, or you could divide into two) round cake pan that has been greased. (** Caution ** Do not use a springform pan or you will be cleaning your oven. It would be sad.) Pour egg mixture on top. Bake for 1 hour at 300 degrees or until not jiggly any more. Put flan pan in another pan of 1-2 inches of water while baking.

Number Of Servings: 1- all mine! If you're sharing (which I'm not), 8-12, depending on the size of piece you cut.

I don't have admin rights either. I think this is some sort of an elitist blog. Someone should organize a protest.

Missy - I decided to stage a mini coup and I hacked Liz' account. I sent you an invite to your hotmail account. If you still can't post send me an email.
