Leche Flan

Today Lisa made our family a delicious dessert. I watched in the background hoping to recreate it myself in the future. Here is the recipe...
Leche Flan
2 whole eggs
4 egg yolks
1 can of condensed milk (sweetened I think)
1 can of evaporated milk
She mixed all the ingredients until the mixture was quite smooth
Melt some brown sugar and water to make the caramel topping and pour into an aluminum pie plate that fits into your double boiler
Pour egg mixture on top of caramel
Cover pie plate with aluminum foil pierced with a few holes
Place in your double boiler with the lid on

Cook in the double boiler for about an hour and a half or until egg mixture has set

Once finished cooking, place in the fridge to cool

Loosen the edges of the flan and turn flan over onto a serving tray

Recipe should make 2 leche flans

Enjoy:) I think this recipe is similar to Creme Brule
