I found this in a Southern Living mini-cook book. It is WONDERFUL!!!!
Creme Caramel in a Bundt
makes 12 servings
Preheat oven to 350.
Must be made at least 12 hours in advance.
3 cups sugar, divided
3 cups whipping cream
1 T. vanilla extract
6 large eggs
2 egg yolks
1/2 c. sweetened condensed milk
1 (3 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
garnish: fresh blackberries, raspberries, mint leaves
1. Sprinkle 1 cup sugar into a medium skillet. Place over medium heat, and cook, shaking pan often, until sugar melts and turns to light golden bown. (carmelized sugar) Quickly pour syrup into a 12 cup Bundt pan, tilting to coat bottom and 1 1/2 inches up sides; set aside. (Mixture may crack as it cools.)
2. Stir together whipping cream and vanilla in a large bowl. Process 6 large eggs, next 3 ingredients, and remaining 2 cups sugar in a blender just until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. (do not overprocess) Stir egg mixture into cream misture.
3. Pour custard over caramelized sugar in Bundt pan, and place in a large roasting pan on oven rack. Pour hot water into roasting pan to a depth of 1 inch.
4. Bake at 350 for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until a knife inserted in deepest portion comes out almost clean. Remove Bundt pan from water. Cool 1 hour on a wire rack. Cover and chill at least 8 hours. Loosen edges from Bundt pan with a thin knife, and invert carefully onto a serving plante. Garnish, if desired.
My final impression was that it is a cross between flan and cheese cake. Oh, yum!

Okay, I don't have a Bundt pan OR a roasting pan, but I think I might run to Wal-Mart to get both just to make this! I think we'd both love it!
Oh, Mother it looks sinful! Not only does it look delicious it is BEAUTIFUL to boot! Paula Deen would be SO proud!
