Thanks for any help.
Everything will be all right in the end. So if it is not right, then it's not yet the end.

Marye, I've been making this one for years - we just love it.
I've always made it in a shallow baking dish instead of individual portions. * Exported from MasterCook * CREAM CHEESE FLAN (FLAN DE QUESO) 3/4 cup granulated sugar 12 oz. can Carnation Evaporated Milk 14 oz. can Carnation Sweetened Condensed Milk 8 ounces cream cheese -- softened, cut into chunks 5 eggs Place sugar in small, heavy-duty saucepan. Cook over med-high heat, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 min. or till sugar is dissolved & golden. Quickly pour into eight 10-oz. custard cups,* tip cups to coat bottoms with sugar syrup. Place evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk & cream cheese in food processor or blender container; cover. Process until smooth. Add eggs; process till well mixed. Pour mixture into prepared cups. Place cups in two large baking pans; fill pans with hot water to 1" depth. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 30-40 min. or till knife inserted in centers comes out clean. Remove to wire racks to cool for 30 min.; chill for several hours or overnight. To serve, run small spatula around edges of cups; gently shake flans to loosen. Invert onto serving dishes to serve. Description: "You can make it up to two days ahead."

Coat with melted sugar syrup & pour milk mixture into dish as above. Place dish in large baking pan; fill pan halfway with hjot water. Bake in preheated 350 oven for 60-70 min. or til knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool, Chill; invert as above onto a platter. Slice into wedges.
