Croissant Cream Cheese Flan Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees 2. Slice croissants in half and lightly toast in the oven, face up, for 10 ten minutes. 3. Caramelize the bottom of an 8X4 inch round pan by pouring 1/2 cup sugar into the pan. Dissolve the sugar over medium heat until light brown, making sure to cover the entire bottom of the pan. Let cool. 4. Layer toasted croissants in the pan. 5. In a blender, mix eggs for 2 minutes. Add cream cheese, evaporated milk and condensed milk; blend to obtain a creamy custard. 6. Pour egg mixture into a large bowl and add remaining sugar, half and half and vanilla. Mix with a wooden spoon until well incorporated and pour over croissants. Make sure the mixture saturates the croissants. 7. Place the pan in a large pan containing 1/2 inch of warm water and bake for about 1 hour. Cooking time may vary depending on the oven. Flan should have a light golden color when done. 8. Remove from the oven and let cool. Refrigerate for 4 hours before serving. Tip: Cut flan into squares and serve with a scoop of your favorite ice cream on top. Drizzle with carmel sauce from the pan.

Steps:

• Cut the croissants in half and toast in the oven on a baking sheet.
• Lower the oven to 350°F.
• In a casserole dish that is at least ten inches long and 4 inches high caramelize the 1/2 c sugar (dissolve it over medium heat till light golden brown).
• Make sure to coat the entire bottom of the pan.
• allow to cool and layer the croissants (they will be stacked on top and overlapping).
• In a blender mix eggs for 2 minutes.
• Add the cream cheese, evaporated milk and condensed milk, blending till smooth.
• Pour into a large bowl and mix with remaining sugar, half and half and vanilla, stirring with a wooden spoon till well blended.
• Pour over croissants making sure to do it slowly and allow the mixture to be absorbed by the croissants.
• Place pan in a larger pan and fill that pan with 1/2-inch water.
• Place in oven and cook approx 1 hr flan should have a light golden color when done and slightly set up.
• Remove from heat. To cool it, place in fridge to cool for 4 hrs cut and flip to show caramel side. We like ours slightly warm and you can serve this also with vanilla ice cream using the bottom caramel to drizzle over the ice cream (we eat ours plain).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• To make the caramel, add the sugar and 2 tablespoons water to a pan and heat over medium-low heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Once the sugar is dissolved, do not stir anymore. Cook until the mixture turns amber brown, about 10 minutes. Brush down the sides of the pan as needed with a wet pastry brush to avoid crystallization. When the caramel is done, pour evenly into six 3/4- to 1-cup ramekins.
• Add the cream cheese to the bowl of a stand mixer and whip until smooth. Add the condensed milk, regular milk, cinnamon, vanilla, salt and eggs and beat until smooth and the ingredients are incorporated. Divide evenly among the ramekins over the caramel.
• Bring some water to a boil in a kettle. Place the ramekins in a large roasting pan and pour boiling water into the pan until it reaches about halfway up the ramekins. Bake until the custard is set, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely, then refrigerate until chilled.
• To remove the flans from the ramekins, run a knife around the edge of each flan and invert onto individual serving plates. Garnish with the mixed berries.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

• Whisk together egg yolks and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl.
• Process egg whites, cream cheese, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in blender until smooth. Stir egg white mixture into egg yolk mixture. Pour mixture through a wire-mesh strainer into a large bowl; pour custard over caramelized sugar.
• Place dish in a large shallow pan. Add hot water to pan to a depth of 1/3 up sides of dish.
• Bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Remove dish from water bath; cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and chill at least 3 hours.
