Chocoflan Recipe


Winter, the merriest season of the year. Oh how I love this season. Hello again and God bless you. We know that the holidays can be overwhelming specially with all the Christmas shopping, family gatherings, work and to top it off, if you're a mother of four (like me) it can get pretty tiring at times. It seems like there is no time for the kitchen, but I have this amazing and super easy dessert recipe that I guarantee is going to blow your and your guest's mind. Chocoflan! Yes, you read it right. I know it sounds like the most difficult thing to bake because you only see them so perfectly layered in the grocery stores but believe me you can make it as perfect as that and even better because it's homemade. If you love flan and chocolate cake as much as I do, you're going to love this recipe.
How fun! Let's get started.

INGREDIENTS:

  • Nonstick cooking spray or butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • large egg yolks (Tip: use 3 whole eggs instead of egg yolks for a firmer flan)
  • 1 can (14oz.) NESTLE La Lechera Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1 can (12 fl. oz.) NESTLE Carnation Evaporated Milk
  • 1 pkg (18.25oz.) devil's food cake mix (or any chocolate cake mix of your choice)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Move oven rack to the lowest position. Spray a 10in. bundt pan (or any of your preference) with nonstick cooking spray or butter. Place a roasting pan filled half way with water in the oven.


Heat sugar in a small, heavy-duty saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until dissolved and caramel colored. Quickly pour onto bottom of prepared pan. Spread to cover the bottom evenly. (Be careful because it can be really hot).

Mix egg yolks (or 3 whole eggs), sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk in blender until well blended.

Prepare cake mix batter according to package directions.

Pour flan mixture over caramel. Slowly add the cake batter over the flan mixture. Place it inside the half water filled roasting pan inside the oven.

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until inserted wooded toothpick or knife comes out clean.

Carefully remove pan from water. Let cool for about 30 minutes. Invert to a serving dish.

Enjoy!
