3. Once the sugar has dissolved, quickly transfer the caramel to the mold where you will prepare the eggnog flan.
4. You can use a glass dish or individual molds, but make sure your mold can withstand high temperatures.
5. Prepare the mixture for the flan, so blend the cream cheese with the evaporated milk, the condensed milk, the eggs, the vanilla and the eggnog.

9. Pour the mixture into the moldor molds until it is almost completely filled.
10. As you can see, this is an eggnog flan recipe without gelatin, but if you prefer you can use it to give it a harder consistency.
11. Simply hydrate a teaspoon of gelatin, dissolve it in half a glass of hot evaporated milk and mix it with the other ingredients.
12. Cover each eggnog flan with aluminum foil so that they are well covered and place them on a tray or pot to cook them in a bain-marie.
13. You can cook the flans on the fire or in the oven. For this second option, preheat the oven to 180ºC.
14. Once hot, place the flans on the tray, pour water until it reaches half the molds and let them cook for 1 hour.
15. To make the eggnog flan without an oven, the cooking time is the same because you will have to cook them over low heat.
