Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 325°F.
2.For the honey, heat the honey or agave syrup and sage leaf in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and let cool. Discard sage.
3.For the Flan, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until soft and smooth. Gradually beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add sweetened condensed milk, milk, and vanilla extract, stirring until well combined.
4.Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large liquid-measuring cup.
5.Pour 1/3 cup of the cooled honey or agave syrup (save remaining honey for serving) to coat bottom of a 9-inch cake pan. Pour cream cheese batter over honey.
6.Place cake pan in a large roasting pan. Add enough boiling water to come halfway up the side of the cake pan. Bake until the middle of the custard is set, about 50 minutes.
7.Remove cake pan from roasting pan and let cool to room temperature. Chill until set, at least 4 hours or overnight. To unmold, run a paring knife around edges of flan. Invert onto a large plate. Spoon remaining honey over top of flan. Serve with fresh berries or peach, if desired
