Time 2h20m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Softened butter, to coat pan
1/4 cup cajeta or caramel sauce
10 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 egg, room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
3 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup cajeta or caramel sauce
1/4 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Put an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
  • Coat a Bundt pan with a little butter, then coat the bottom with 1/4 cup cajeta and put it in a large roasting pan. (The roasting pan will serve as a water bath during baking.)
  • For the cake: Add the butter and sugar to a bowl and using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, beat until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and cocoa in a medium bowl. Beat 1/3 of the flour mixture, and 1/2 of the buttermilk into the egg mixture. Repeat, ending with the flour mixture. Blend until well incorporated.
  • For the flan: In a blender, combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream cheese, eggs and vanilla. Blend on high for 30 seconds.
  • Scoop the cake batter into the prepared Bundt pan and spreading evenly. Slowly pour the flan mixture over the cake batter. Cover with foil and add about 1-inch of hot water to the roasting pan.
  • Carefully slide the pan into the oven, and bake 1 hour, until the surface of the cake is firm to the touch, or an inserted toothpick comes out clean. When cake is done, remove from the water bath and cool completely to room temperature, about 1 hour.
  • Invert a large, rimmed serving platter over the Bundt pan, grasp tightly together, jiggle a little and flip over. Remove the pan and scrape any remaining cajeta from the pan onto the cake, garnish with chopped pecans and serve!

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

For caramel:
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
For flan:
1 (10-to 11-ounces) jar cajeta (goat's-milk caramel; about 3/4 cup)
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 (1-inch-wide) strip of lime zest
1/2 vanilla bean
3 whole large eggs
4 large egg yolks
Equipment: 8 (4-ounce) ramekins
Accompaniment: whipped cream

Steps:

  • Make caramel:
  • Bring sugar and water to a boil in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved, then wash down any sugar crystals from side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water. Boil, without stirring, swirling pan occasionally so caramel colors evenly, until dark amber.
  • Immediately divide caramel among ramekins and swirl each ramekin to coat bottom and about halfway up side.
  • Make flan:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
  • Put cajeta, half-and-half, and lime zest in a heavy medium saucepan. Split vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape seeds into saucepan, then drop in pod. Bring to a simmer, stirring until smooth.
  • Whisk together whole eggs and yolks in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in hot liquid, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve into another bowl. Ladle custard into ramekins.
  • Bake in a hot water bath until edge is set but a quarter-size spot in center is still wobbly, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Remove ramekins from water and cool at least 30 minutes (custard will continue to set). Unmold just before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CREAM CHEESE FLAN



Cream Cheese Flan image

Rich and Creamy Flan with a beautiful amber sauce makes for a striking presentation. If you like cheese cake you will love this. You can add a bit of Amaretto Liquor if you like, or serve with a little Kahlua Liquor and a dollop of whipped cream. This requires a standing time of 3 hours and 20 minutes before serving.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 Flan, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup sugar
1 (14 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (12 fluid ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
5 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and heat sugar in a small, heavy-duty saucepan over medium-low heat.
  • Stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes or until sugar is dissolved and caramel colored.
  • QUICKLY pour into bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Place evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, eggs and vanilla in a blender; cover.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Pour mixture into the prepared casserole dish (over the dissolved sugar).
  • Place casserole in a 13x9-inch baking dish; fill baking dish with warm water to 1-inch depth.
  • Bake 1 hour and 20 to 30 minutes or until knife inserted comes out clean.
  • Remove flan from hot water.
  • Cool at room temperature in casserole on wire rack.
  • Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
  • Run knife around rim; gently shake to loosen.
  • Invert into serving dish.
  • Enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the flan come together smoothly and evenly.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeating the eggs can incorporate too much air into the flan, which can cause it to be too airy and light.
  • Strain the flan mixture: Straining the flan mixture will help remove any lumps or solids that could cause the flan to be grainy.
  • Use a water bath: Baking the flan in a water bath helps to create a moist and evenly cooked flan.
  • Chill the flan before serving: Chilling the flan before serving helps it to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

This cajeta flan with cream cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of cajeta, cream cheese, and flan is a winning combination that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this cajeta flan with cream cheese a try. You won't be disappointed!
