3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
14 oz can condensed milk, preferably la lechera
12 oz can evaporated milk, preferably Carnation brand
1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 Tbsp vanilla extract, preferably Mexican Vanilla Extract
5 large eggs, room temperature

Instructions
Prep – Preheat the oven to 350หF with a rack in the middle of the oven and bring a kettle of water to boil which you will need for the water bath. Take out a 9-inch by 2-inch round, non-stick cake pan so itโs ready to transfer melted sugar.
Make the Caramel – In a medium heavy saucepan, stir together sugar and water until dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat without stirring, about 3-5 minutes. Once you see it start to turn golden then start swirling the pan frequently over the heat until itโs the color of cinnamon, about 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat and continue swirling constantly for another 30 seconds as it turns amber-colored.
