This cake is very rich, but very very good. My neighbor gave me one baked one year for Christmas and ever since then I make them and give them to friends and family also. Everyone loves them.

How To Make rich fudgy chocolate flan cake

  • 1
    In a large bowl start mixing cake ingredients in order, when all is added make sure it is mixed well. This cake works best in a flan pan since it does have a filling. Pour cake batter into 2 flan pans that are greased and floured. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.

    Mix the four filling ingredients until smooth and creamy. Put in center of cake that is completely cooled. Don't put filling in if cake is the slightest bit warm, because it will melt the cream cheese and cool whip and the cake will not work
