How To Make chocoflan
-
1put oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F -
2coat a bundt pan with a little butter, then coat the bottom with 1/4 cup caramel sauce of cajeta and put it in a large roasting pan. (the roasting pan will serve as a water bath during baking)
-
3For the cake: add the butter and sugar to a bowl and using electric hand mixer or stand mixer, beat until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg. sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cocoa in a medium bowl. beat 1/3 of the flower mixture, and 1/2 of the buttermilk into the egg mixture. repeat, ending with the flour mixture. blend until well incorporated.
-
4For the flan: in a blender, combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream cheese, eggs and vanilla. blend on high for 30 seconds
-
5scoop the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly. slowly pour the flan mixture over the cake batter. cover with tin foil and add about 1 inch of hot water to the roasting pan.
-
6carefully slide the pan into the oven, bake for 1 hour, until the surface of the cake is firm to the touch, or an inserted toothpick comes out clean. when cake is done, remove from the water bath and cool completely to room temperature, about 1 hour.
-
7invert a large, rimmed serving plater over the bundt pan, grasp tightly together, giggle a little and flip over. remove the pan and scarp off any remaining caramel sauce from the pan onto the cake, garnish with chopped pecans and serve!
-
8cooks note: the batters may appear to mix when you pour them into the pan, but they completely separate while baking, with the flan ending up on the bottom when its inverted. it is traditionally chilled for 24 hours before serving (tastes even better)
