Ingredients

• 12 eggs
• 8oz Cream Cheese
• 3 cans condensed Milk
• 4 tbsp mascarpone
• 1 quart milk
• 1 tbsp pure vanilla
• 1 tsp cinnamon.

Combine above ingredients in a large blender for 1 minute (If your blender is too small, blend in batches).

 Meanwhile make a caramel from 3 cups of sugar, pour into a 12x8" pan and let it harden for 5 minutes. Pour the custard into the pan. Place pan into a larger pan filled halfway with warm water. Put into a 350 degrees oven for 1 1/2 hours - 1 2/4 hours.

Invert on to a large plate (be sure that the plate is large enough as the caramel sauce will flow over the flan)

For variety add a cup of pureed mango, peaches or strawberries.
