| 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. | 2. Add apricots to a small saucepan and cover only with enough water to cover. | 3. Bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes, taking care not to allow apricots to boil dry. | 4. Drain off any remaining water and pour the cooked apricots into blender jar or food processing bowl. | 5. Reconstitute the 1/3 cup powdered milk with 2/3 cup of water and add to blender jar. | 6. Pulse until apricots are chopped fine. | 7. Add remaining ingredients, except for cashews and raisins, to apricot mixture and pulse to mix thoroughly. | 8. Combine sugar, water, corn syrup and lemon juice for caramel sauce in a heavy medium saucepan over low heat, stirring only until sugar dissolves. | 9. When sugar has dissolved, increase the heat to medium-high and cook without stirring until syrup turns deep amber, brushing down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush and swirling pan occasionally, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. | 10. Pour the caramel into four 3/4 cup-ramekins or custard cups. | 11. Quickly tilt each ramekin to coat sides. | 12. Set the ramekins into a large baking dish. | 13. Sprinkle bottoms of ramekins with raisins, pour in custard mixture and sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon chopped cashews. | 14. Fill baking dish with hot water to reach half-way up sides of ramekins. | 15. Place in preheated oven and bake for 1 hour or until set. | 16. Remove flans from water and place on rack to cool. | 17. When cool, cover and chill overnight. | 18. Turn out onto individual serving dishes by loosening with a small sharp knife, shake gently and lift off ramekin. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
