1cancondensed milk387 g
1canevaporated milk390 g
1tspvanilla extract
Instructions
Pre-heat oven at 180°C or 356°F.
Put 2 tbsp of granulated white sugar into each lyanera. Place it over flame stove and set the fire to low heat. Cook until the sugar turns into light brown liquid. Spread it evenly and turn off the heat. Let it cool until the sugar forms and turns into solid.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese using a hand-held mixer until smooth and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time while beating.
Add the condensed milk, evaporated milk and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined and let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the foam to subside.
Pour the mixture into each lyanera and cover with aluminum foil. Place it on a large baking pan and add about 1-inch hot water.
Bake at 180°C or 356°F for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of custard comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before turning it over into a plate.
