You are a delight and so funny to listen to. haha! cheesecake and flan, automatic click, and I don't care if other cultures have made cheese flan for decades, THIS was your experiment, and original on it's own. Mahalo!

I love the cadence of Chef John’s voice. He talks like he’s singing. It’s very calming.

Actually, that's a type of flan well known in Puerto Rico. It's a "Flan de Queso" or a cheese flan. Not all flans are made with the basic custard recipe. We also have variants like the coconut flan or pumpkin flan. And most of the time, Puerto Ricans will add a package of cream cheese to the custard to make it less eggy anyway. So, the cheese flan is THE FLAN we make in Puerto Rico.

Chef John, I am from Puerto Rico and we make flan with cream cheese all the time. We call it flan de queso. A tip for making the caramel: an easy and fool-proof method is to make it in the microwave! For each 1 cup sugar, add 1/4 cup water. Mix together in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 7-10 minutes. Start checking at the 7 minute mark, then stay by the microwave keeping an eye on it. As soon as it turns amber colored it is done.

The caramel is the same whether you make it on the stove or the microwave. Keep in mind that once it is poured in the mold it will harden no matter what. I HAVE DONE IT BOTH WAYS HUNDREDS OF TIMES AND NOTHING CHANGED, ALL GOOD

@texasshopper6331

Camille The caramel hardens as it cools down, it is not automatically hard/dry when you cook it. Whether you make it on the stovetop or microwave, you will get a liquid. Once you pour that into your mold and it cools, that is when it hardens. Once it is hardened, and baked in a Bain Marie, it turns liquid again.

Chef you're an angel...like many say, you truly are the Bob Ross of cooking. Listening to you is therapy. Lots of love and best wishes to you. God bless you.

What I actually like about chef John , is that by just looking at his food I feel that he makes the recipes with love and happiness ,so how could I feel if I tasted his food??!!!!

OMG my two favorite deserts combined. How great is that.

I am having a really bad day, but hearing "round the outside, round the outside" makes me smile and feel better. Thanks, Chef John.

To My Favourite Chef who cooks real food. Cheers!!!!!

Made this on Valentine’s Day for my mom! I was nervous but it turned out great and she loved it! Thanks chef John :)

" I don't remember what but it was something " - you always make my day 👍👍👍

Your voice overs truly make me laugh!!!!! 🤣 I love your sense of humor! And your recipes of course

I appreciate your honesty and to still present a non-perfect dish. I am going to try this without the crust

Chef, you’re a genius. How did I never think to combine these two before...

Without the crumbs, this resembles Venezuelan quesillo. Looks fantastic!!

Thank you, Chef, for this recipe. It combines my two favorite desserts--cheesecake & flan. I followed your recipe & the resut was absolutely delicious!

Chef John, My husband and I thoroughly enjoy your videos and recipes. My husband is the primary cook in our home. Now that we are older and watching our diets for healthy recipes, we wish you could teach us to convert some recipes to Keto. We have learned we can eat Butter, Bacon and Salt. It's not a diet, it is a healthy life style!

Absolutely and outrageously exquisite.

Chef John, your recipe seems awesome! Can't wait to try it. I love your "getting la.... lots of compliments" 😆😆 Happy Valentine's Day everyone! :)

Looks delish!!! Will be trying this over the weekend for sure! we have a dish called flan de queso here in spain, literally cheese flan, and it's made pretty much exactly like yours but with more cream cheese and without **full-body shudders** parm in there. The texture is slightly more creamy than that of a classic flan, and the flavor is much much more complex. A win-win, if you ask me.

You are the best, so simple

"trying to make something beautiful and delicious to increase your chances of getting LLLLLLLLLL(aid)ots of compliments..." smooth one there, Chef John.

I thought no one else noticed.😂

I like the idea of the topping, Chef, as well as the dry caramel (the way I was taught)--don't worry if it doesn't cover the entire bottom of the ramekin or pan; it'll all come out in the wash. I might try the crust, next time I make small ones. As Franchesca says below, the cream cheese is typical of the Puerto Rican-style flan (which can convert people who normally don't like the consistency of flan). The recipe I was taught makes more than 4 servings-just as well, for those who like it. I've found that combining the softened cream cheese (3 oz) with the can of condensed milk first takes care of all of the little cheese crumbles, and makes it smooth. Then add 2 cans evaporated milk, 4 eggs, and any kind of flavoring you want (1t vanilla, or toasted coconut, or cinnamon, etc.) I was also taught to bake it at 400-425 for 40 minutes, but to start with a cold oven. Seems to work fine, though that's an 8x8 pan, so for smaller ones, I'd shorten the time. This dish always impresses people because it looks so elegant, but once you learn how not to burn the caramel, it's easy, done in 10 minutes, stick it in the oven and walk away. Btw, I'll stir the caramel with a wooden spoon, you just have to soak that spoon after, or rinse it in extremely hot water.

My two favorite deserts. 🤤

Absolutely love this!😍⚘💕💕💗

And as always 🎶 , I *did* enjoy watching

Flan is Flan; Cheesecake is Cheesecake; You invented something new Chef John, that's a good thing

I love your videos! Your voice always cheers me up 😊

Looks delicious

This is perfect for valentine's day. Thank you

For making the dry caramel, I have a different sort of advice; don't add the sugar all in one go, but in at least 3 doses. This way, even if it starts to burn, you can save it while at the same time keeping the glycemic count a bit lower. Stirring is still a no-no, but do feel free to take the pan off the heat for a few seconds if it starts caramelizing too fast for you to handle. Best spend a couple extra minutes than ending up with a burnt caramel, right? For the biscuit base; what if you made the bases separate from the flans? Break the crumbs, mix in the butter (and assorted flavors of course), use moulds of identical size as your flan to create the base and refridgerate. Then place the base and invert on top. This should keep the base a bit dryer and crunchier as it won't have time to absorb humidity. You could also bake the biscuit base for a few minutes for a fluffier, even crunchier mouthfeel.

Wow delicious i try once the cheese cake flan its perfect taste.

Great video. Quick tip: Lightly tap each ramekin with the uncooked flan mixture on the bottom to eliminate some bubbles formed before cooking.

Voila! My first Flan baking and eating. Lovely results! Used mascarpone as additional cheese. A bit "eggy" for me but suspect it will be better tomorrow. I'm a huge cheesecake fan & was hoping for more like that. The caramel bit is awesome, though...

okay I'm making this tomorrow.... it looks delicious

Wonderful!

ive been binge watching your vids for the past few weeks, I was hoping you would post a flan video cause that's what ive been making recently x3. love the vids

Great recipe! Thanks for the tip about how to get a bit more caramel sauce out of the container! Flan is a classic of Argentine food, so I will have to make this at some point. Even though it sounds like your recipe didn't have the flavor you were expecting, I'm sure that it was still delicious! 👍

chef John you are the man

Great video and recipe!

Still is a change from a classic flan and still looks great.

Hello Chef. I tried your recipe and while my cheesecake Flan where cooling down at room temperature, I mixed Graham cracker crumb with the cheesecake flan custard left over and poured it in a cup, heated it up in my microwave for 2:30 mins and it came out like a pudding. It was really good. I don't know if you knew about that, but you should try it. I didn't measure the custard left over and the crumb, but the mixture was liquid but getting to the point of getting thick. I don't know how to explain it, but if you get it right, you should do a video. Instant Cheesecake Graham Pudding Mug or something like that. Keep it going. Love your recipes.

Love love whatchamacallit…. Thank you!
