This is a wonderful flan recipe from the late Iris Perez. Its origin is Mexican. For a denser, cheesecake-like texture, substitute eight ounces of cream cheese for two of the eggs.

  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 ½ cups white sugar

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Have ready 9 inch round cake pan.

  2. In blender or food processor, or using electric mixer, combine eggs, condensed milk and vanilla and blend until smooth. In medium sauce pan, cook sugar, stirring constantly, until it liquefies.
