Chocoflan with Caramel Drizzle
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup of cajeta or caramel sauce
- 1 box of chocolate cake mix
- 1 can of evaporated milk
- 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and pour the cajeta or caramel sauce into the bottom, spreading it evenly.
- Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions.
- In a blender, combine the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Pour the milk mixture over the caramel in the cake pan.
- Carefully spoon the chocolate cake batter over the milk mixture, spreading it evenly.
- Cover the cake pan with aluminum foil and place it in a larger baking dish. Fill the larger dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
- Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake pan from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- To serve, run a knife around the edge of the cake pan to loosen the chocoflan. Place a serving plate upside down on top of the pan, then carefully flip the pan and plate together to release the chocoflan onto the plate.
- Drizzle with additional caramel sauce before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
