做法

分步操作

1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
约 10分钟
2
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water for the caramel over medium heat.
约 1分钟
3
Cook the sugar mixture without stirring, swirling the pan occasionally, until it turns a rich amber color.
约 8分钟
烹饪提示： Watch carefully as it can burn quickly once it starts to color.
4
Immediately pour the hot caramel into a 9-inch round baking dish or a flan mold, tilting the dish to coat the bottom evenly.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示： Work quickly as the caramel sets fast.
5
In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, large eggs, vanilla extract, and cream cheese (if using).
约 2分钟
烹饪提示： Ensure the cream cheese is softened for a smoother blend.
6
Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.
约 1分钟
7
Carefully pour the custard mixture over the cooled caramel in the baking dish.
约 1分钟
8
Place the baking dish into a larger roasting pan.
9
Pour hot water into the roasting pan until it comes about halfway up the sides of the flan dish.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示： This creates a water bath (bain-marie) which helps the flan cook gently and evenly.
10
Carefully transfer the roasting pan with the flan to the preheated oven.
11
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly.
约 1小时
烹饪提示： A knife inserted near the edge should come out clean.
12
Remove the flan from the water bath and let it cool completely on a wire rack at room temperature.
约 30分钟
13
Once cooled, cover the flan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
约 4小时
烹饪提示： Chilling is crucial for the flan to firm up and for the caramel to liquefy.
14
To serve, run a thin knife around the edge of the flan to loosen it.
约 1分钟
15
Place a serving plate upside down over the flan dish and carefully invert the flan onto the plate.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示： The caramel sauce will pour over the flan as it releases.
