Coconut Caramel Cream Cheese Flan image

My wonderful former neighbors in Gainesville, FL (Rafael and Madeleine De Paz) gave me this recipe after giving me, for Christmas, one of these. Ignore the "caramels." The last two ingredients make the caramello for the cake pan. (RecipeZaar doesn't let me list instructions for the ingredients.)

Time 5h30m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (14 ounce) can condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 large egg yolks
12 ounces softened cream cheese
1 (15 ounce) can cream of coconut
1 (3 1/2 ounce) can sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolks with a fork or whisk. Add to the milk mixture. Add the softened cream cheese and mix (may use an electric mixer).

  • In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium-high heat. Let "melt" until it turns light brown (do not let burn!). Pour the caramel into an angel food or bundt pan.
  • Let the caramel harden.
  • Pour the milk mixture into the cake pan. Put the cake pan into the oven in a preheated lasagna pan.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for an hour and an half. When it is done, let it cool for a full hour.

  • Garnish with oranges with leaves and orange slices and mint.

The flan was a bit dense for my liking, but the flavor was good. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

This flan was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

This flan was a bit too runny for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would cook it for a little longer next time.

This coconut caramel cream cheese flan was a hit at my dinner party! It was creamy, flavorful, and had just the right amount of sweetness. The caramel sauce on top was the perfect finishing touch.
