Get all of your ingredients ready. I use the Coronado cajeta Quemada for the topping. If you don't know where to buy it at, I have seen that Walmart has it in the Latin aisle.

Put all of the ingredients in the blender. I usually put the evaporated milk first, and then the sweet and condensed milk next. I found that if you put the condensed milk first it don't blend as well.

With another pan filled 1/4 full of water underneath flan, bake for 45 minutes. It will still be a little jiggly as it will set in refrigerator.

After it is cooked, stick in refrigerator for about 2 hours, or if you're like my family and can't wait you can stick in freezer for an hour so it "sets" faster. Then enjoy!! :)

Coming out of oven, notice that the cajeta is now on the top.
