Cheesecake Flan

1/2 c sugar - caramelized. To caramelize, put in a heavy skillet and heat over low temperature until melted. Be patient or the sugar will burn. It helps to have a lid on the skillet, but be sure to keep checking. Quickly pour the caramelized sugar into an 8" round pan. Tip the pan until the bottom is coated and be fast or it will set up. (You can heat pan over low heat to re-melt enough to cover bottom.)

1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
3 eggs
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 13 oz. can evaporated milk

Put softened cream cheese and eggs in a blender. Blend until smooth at low speed. Add sweetened condensed milk and blend again. Then add evaporated milk last and blend. (It works best to make sure the first three ingredients are blended before adding the evaporated milk, otherwise the mixture may be lumpy.) Pour over caramelized sugar and set pan in another pan which has about 1/2" of water in it. Bake at 350 F for 55 - 60 minutes. Cool until warm. Cut around edge of pan. Invert onto serving tray. Chill.
