Ingredients
-
3/4 cup sugar
-
1/4 cup water
-
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
-
5 large eggs, room temperature
-
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
-
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
-
1.
In a heavy saucepan, cook sugar and water over medium-low heat until melted and golden, about 15 minutes. Brush down crystals on the side of the pan with additional water as necessary. Quickly pour into an ungreased 2-qt. round baking or souffle dish, tilting to coat the bottom; let stand for 10 minutes.

2.
Preheat oven to 350°. In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, until thoroughly combined. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Pour over caramelized sugar.

3.
Place the dish in a larger baking pan. Pour boiling water into larger pan to a depth of 1 in. Bake until the center is just set (mixture will jiggle), 50-60 minutes.
-
4.
Remove dish from a larger pan to a wire rack; cool for 1 hour. Refrigerate overnight.
-
5.
To unmold, run a knife around edge and invert onto a large rimmed serving platter. Cut into wedges or spoon onto dessert plates; spoon sauce over each serving.
