Preheat oven to 325° F. Pour caramel mixture into a rectangular baking dish or into individual molds; set aside. Beat sweetened condensed milk, 2 cups cold water, eggs and vanilla extract in bowl until smooth. Strain mixture through a strainer and pour into the baking dish or individual molds with the caramel.

Step 3

Bake for about 1 hour (35 minutes if using individual molds) or until set and surface is browned slightly. Let cool; refrigerate.
