Chocoflan Preparation Step by Step

STEP 1. Make the caramel layer

The first thing you should do is butter the mold. To make the caramel, place a pan or a small pot over medium heat, add half a cup of sugar and a quarter cup of water. Let it become caramel, without stirring or touching it to prevent the sugar from crystallizing and leaving lumps.

When it begins to take caramel color you must lower the flame and move the pan with circular movements so that everything is caramelized and has a light caramel color you must empty it into the mold quickly.

STEP 2 – Make the cheese or flan layer

Beat the five eggs, the can of condensed milk, the same measure of whole milk and a tablespoon of vanilla in a large bowl by hand. After beating well, add the mixture to the mold where you have emptied the caramel, which will already be hard.

Bake this cheese in a double boiler at 220ºC for 20 min, so that it does not burn.

STEP 3 – Make the chocolate layer

To do this, you must mix all the ingredients by hand in a bowl. Mix 4 eggs, a cup of cocoa or chocolate powder, a half cup of milk, a half of oil, one and a half of sugar, a tablespoon of baking powder, and a cup and a half of all-purpose wheat flour.

After 20 minutes of the cheese or flan in the oven, we take it out and add the layer of chocolate carefully and with a spatula, spread it well so that it is uniform. Return to the oven in a water bath at 220ºC for 40 to 45 minutes. It will be ready when you insert a toothpick and it comes out dry.

Let it cool well before serving and then enjoy!
