CHOCOFLAN RECIPE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 350 F.
- Combine the eggs, sugar, and butter in a large bowl and mix with an electric beater or whisk by hand until well blended.
- Sift the flour and the cocoa powder into another large bowl and whisk together.
- Pour the egg-butter mixture into the flour-cocoa mixture and fold together until well combined. Set aside.
- In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cream, eggs, and vanilla. Blend on medium until well combined, about 2 minutes. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, combine 3/4 cup sugar with 1/4 cup water over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture turns golden brown, about 9 minutes.
- Generously grease the inside of a 9-inch (9-cup) bundt pan, including the center tube, with vegetable oil. Drizzle the caramel mixture over the bottom and some over the sides of the pan.
- Pour the chocolate batter into the pan, smoothing it evenly with a silicone spatula.
- Gently pour the flan mixture over the chocolate batter, gently smoothing it evenly with a silicone spatula. Cover the bundt pan with foil.
- Place the bundt pan inside a larger roasting or baking pan. Fill the larger pan half-way with very hot water. Transfer to the oven and bake until the layers have swapped and a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour.
- It's not ready, yet! Remove the cake from the roasting pan. Remove the foil, and let the cake cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours. To unmold, cover with a plate and carefully invert to release the cake from the pan. Serve with fresh raspberries, if you like.

CHOCOFLAN AS MADE BY MARISEL SALAZAR RECIPE BY TASTY
This ultimate dessert makes an unforgettable impression, a jaw-dropping cake that's two desserts in one. Chocoflan, a Mexican dessert, is known as "The Impossible Cake" because the cake and the flan layers never mix and actually switch positions during baking. It's chocolate cake on the bottom, flan on top, with a drizzle of cajeta (caramelized goat's milk) or caramel for full-on #dessertgoals.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Make the cake layer: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, water, and cinnamon. Beat with an electric hand mixer or whisk until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, about 2 minutes.
- Grease a 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with nonstick spray. Pour ¼ cup of the caramel sauce into the bottom of the cake pan.
- Pour the cake batter into the pan over the caramel sauce.
- Make the flan layer: In a blender, combine the eggs, sweetened condensed vanilla, and milk. Blend on high speed for 20-30 seconds, or until smooth.
- Pour the flan mixture evenly over the cake batter. The two may mix together at this point, but they will separate during baking into 2 distinct layers of cake and flan.
- Spray a piece of aluminum foil with nonstick spray, then place the greased side down over the bundt pan, covering tightly. Place the bundt pan in a large, deep roasting pan and pour enough hot water to come 1 inch up the sides.
- Bake the chocoflan for 80 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake and flan layers comes out clean. Carefully transfer the cake pan from the water bath to a wire rack and remove the foil. Let cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then transfer the pan to the refrigerator and chill, uncovered, for about 2 hours.
- When ready to serve, remove the bundt pan from the refrigerator. Place a large plate or platter upside down over the pan. Carefully and quickly turn the platter and pan over, then slowly remove the pan.
- Pour the remaining caramel sauce on top of the chocoflan, the slice and serve.

CHOCOFLAN
This dessert is part chocolate cake, part flan and 100 percent mind-blowing. In this class we get two lessons and a bit of baking sorcery. The cake batter and flan mixture are layered in a Bundt pan and, by some degree of magic and science, they switch places and we end up with a flan-topped cake!

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- Spray a 10- to 12-cup nonstick Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in the 1/4 cup caramel sauce to evenly coat the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
- For the chocolate cake: Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl until well combined; set aside.
- Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed then add the eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition until fully incorporated. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula, as necessary.
- Add one-third of the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until combined. Add 3/4 cup of the buttermilk and mix until combined. Repeat with another one-third of the dry ingredients and the remaining 3/4 cup buttermilk, ending with the remaining dry ingredients. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula, as necessary. Set aside.
- For the flan: In a blender, combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream cheese, eggs and vanilla. Blend until combined, about 1 minute.
- Spoon the cake batter into the prepared Bundt pan and spread it evenly. Slowly pour the flan mixture over the cake batter. Cover the pan with foil and transfer it to a roasting pan. Pour in enough boiling water to come about 2 inches up the side of the Bundt pan and carefully transfer to the oven.
- Bake until the surface of the cake is springy and a cake tester comes out clean, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove the Bundt pan from the oven and let the chocoflan cool in the Bundt pan at room temperature for 2 hours. Invert onto a serving platter and serve warm with berries in the middle and drizzled with more caramel sauce or refrigerate for 24 hours.
DULCE DE LECHE CHOCOFLAN
Also known as el pastel imposible (the impossible cake), chocoflan is a baking wonder, its layers of chocolate cake batter and dulce de leche flan swapping places in the oven and coming out as a tiered two-desserts-in-one showstopper. This Mexican staple is often served at birthday parties and other celebrations, but comes together easily enough to enjoy as a sweet treat at home.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Make the flan: In a blender, combine the dulce de leche, evaporated milk, cream cheese, vanilla extract and salt, and blend until smooth, 20 to 30 seconds. Pour in the eggs and blend for another 10 seconds until smooth.
- Make the chocolate cake: Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt directly into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on the lowest setting until just combined, then add the butter and continue mixing on low speed until the mixture resembles wet sand. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed.
- In a liquid measuring cup, combine the coffee, buttermilk, egg and vanilla extract, then slowly pour it into the flour-butter mixture with the mixer running on low. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat the mixture on high for 1 full minute.
- Liberally coat a 10-cup Bundt pan with nonstick baking spray. Add the cake batter, smoothing the top with an offset spatula or spoon. Carefully ladle in the flan mixture so you disturb the cake batter as little as possible. Transfer the Bundt pan to a roasting pan or baking dish large enough to fit the Bundt pan. Grease a piece of foil and place it onto the Bundt pan, greased side down, folding it over the edges to loosely seal it. Transfer to the oven. Pour enough water into the roasting pan or baking dish to come up 2 to 3 inches (tap water is fine).
- Bake until a skewer inserted in the cake part comes out with few to no crumbs, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- Carefully remove the Bundt pan from the roasting pan and uncover. Transfer to a rack and let cool to room temperature. Once fully cooled, cover the top with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled and set, at least 2 hours.
- Once you're ready to serve, carefully run a knife around any edges that are still sticking, then invert onto a serving platter, gently shaking it up and down if it's being difficult. (If it was greased properly, you shouldn't have any major issues.) The chocoflan can be covered and refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your flan will taste. Look for fresh eggs, milk, and cream. You can also use high-quality chocolate, such as dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate.
- Don't overcook the flan: Flan is a delicate custard, so it's important not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery. To check if the flan is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the flan is done.
- Let the flan cool completely before serving: Flan needs to cool completely before you can serve it. This will help it set properly and develop its full flavor.
- Serve the flan with your favorite toppings: Flan can be served with a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, fresh fruit, or caramel sauce. You can also sprinkle it with cinnamon or nutmeg.
Conclusion:
Flan is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's perfect for special occasions or everyday treats. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious flan at home. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give flan a try! You won't be disappointed.
