🔪 Instructions
1. Make the caramel:
-
In a small saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat until it turns golden amber.
-
Quickly pour the caramel into a bundt or round cake pan (20–22 cm diameter).
-
Tilt the pan to coat the bottom evenly. Let it cool and harden.
2. Prepare the flan:
-
In a blender, mix the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
-
Pour this mixture over the hardened caramel in the pan.
3. Prepare the chocolate cake:
-
Make the chocolate cake batter according to the box or your recipe.
-
Carefully pour the batter over the flan mixture. (They will seem to mix, but will separate during baking!)
4. Bake in a water bath (bain-marie):
-
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
-
Place the cake pan inside a larger baking dish and pour hot water into the larger dish, about halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
-
Bake for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the chocolate layer comes out clean.
5. Cool and unmold:
-
Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.
-
Chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
-
To unmold: run a knife around the edges, place a serving plate over the pan, and invert quickly.
