Cuban Flan

In small frying pan, melt down 1 cup of sugar until golden brown. Be careful not to melt too quickly or burnt taste will result. Pour in and around large mold.

Using blender place 4 eggs and beat slightly; add 1 cup of sugar and beat again.

Turn off for a moment to add 1 can of milk and 1/2 cup water from rinse can. Add 1/2 of the vanilla and beat without frothing. Pour into caramelized mold.

Repeat again with other half of ingredients. Place in pan with 1 inch of water in pan.

Cook about 1 hour at 350 degrees. Test by inserting sharp knife. If it comes out clean it's done. Let cool and refrigerate.

Before serving, press down around edges with a knife. Invert mold onto platter so that caramelized sugar oozes over it. Serves 12.
