Nancy, Sheri in Ohio, on Nov. 30th,asked for a flan recipe . This is a TNT recipe that is really good, and quite easy to make. Sheri, when I was younger we called this type of dessert a caramel custard.
from Dorothy in Washington

Flan

1 can Eagle Brand condensed milk (14 ounces)
1 and 1/2 cans of fresh milk (14 ounces plus 7 ounces)
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup sugar for caramelizing

Blend condensed milk, fresh milk, eggs, vanilla, and 1/4 cup sugar together in a blender for 1 minute.

Place 1 cup sugar in cast iron pan. (I do not have a cast iron pan, but use the heaviest pan I have.) Heat over medium low heat until sugar is melted and brown.
Pour into buttered 9X9 pan. (A non-stick buttered one works especially well.)
Pour blended custard over caramel. Place in pan of water and bake 45 to 60 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

Remove. Cool a while, then put in refrigerator to chill. Invert onto a platter and serve.
