Authentic Mexican Flan

Authentic Mexican Flan does not contain Cream Cheese, since there is no cream cheese down in Mexico. Now, this recipe is from my mother in law who lives in Durango, Mexico. It's been passed down for 4 generations. And after begging her she let me see her make it. It's absolutely DIVINE!

Directions

1. Put all of your ingredients in a blender, blend on low until you can see that everything is well incorporated. Then add your milk mixture to the cooled sugar. Place flan carefully in to a water bath, the water should be cool and so should your oven. Bake at 400' for 45 min to an hour or until you can insert a knife and it comes out clean, time will vary depending on your oven. Let the flan sit in the fridge for a good 4 hours or even better overnight. Serve with whipped cream and Delish!
