- Caramel:
- In a heavy metal saucepot combine the sugar, water, and lemon juice. Over high heat cook the sugar to a deep caramel color and pour out into a round 9-inch cake pan, turning around the perimeter so as to cover the sides and bottom of the pan. Set aside to cool completely while you make the cake.
- Cheesecake Base:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- In mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, on low speed work the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar, vanilla, and orange zest. Continue to mix for 2 minutes until smooth. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and scrape down after each addition.
- On low speed slowly stream in the heavy cream. Scrape down every 30 seconds. Remove from bowl and pour out into prepared cool caramel pan.
- Bake in a hot water bath for 1 hour. When finished the cake will be slightly firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and place in the refrigerator. Make sure to cool down for at least 4 hours before flipping over. The cake can be made up to 2 days in advance.
- Flip over by placing a 12-inch flat plate over the top of the cake pan. Hold with a firm grip and flip cake upside down. Let the pan sit on top for a second. Lift pan off the cake and serve on its own or with berries.

SOUTHERN LIVING CHEESECAKE FLAN
A rich baked custard with a caramel sauce. This got rave reviews. It uses mascarpone cheese instead of cream cheese. Should be able to find it near the ricotta cheese, etc. in a main grocery store. Allow time for flan to completely chill. Time below is only for cooking and prep time. This dish sounds harder to make than it really is. Pretty simple to make!

Steps:
- Sprinkle sugar in a heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until sugar melts and turns light brown.
- Remove from heat. QUICKLY pour hot caramel into a 9" round cakepan, tilting to coat bottom; set pan aside. (Caramel will harden and crack).
- Combine eggs and remaining 7 ingredients in a large food processor or blender. Process just until smooth, stopping once to scrape down sides.
- Pour custard mixture over the caramel syrup in cake pan.
- Place cakepan in a large shallow pan. Cover cakepan with aluminum foil.
- Add hot water to shallow pan to depth of 1".
- Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until knife inserted off center comes out clean. (Center should still be slightly liquid; flan will finish cooking as it cools).
- Remove cakepan from water bath; cool flan completely on a wire rack (while still in cakepan).
- Cover and chill for several hours or overnight. Loosen edges of flan with a spatula and invert flan onto a rimmed serving plate, letting caramel sauce drizzle over the top.
