Ingredients

Cake

Flan

  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 eggs

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with cooking spray. Pour and spread caramel topping in bottom of pan.
  • 2
    In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil and 3 eggs with electric mixer on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over caramel topping in pan.
  • 3
    In blender, place Flan ingredients. Cover; blend on high speed about 20 seconds or until smooth. Slowly pour mixture evenly over batter. (Flan mixture will mix with batter, but they will separate during baking, forming 1 layer of cake and 1 layer of flan.) Spray piece of foil with cooking spray, and place sprayed side down over top of pan; cover tightly.
  • 4
    Place cake pan in large roasting pan; add 1 inch of hot water to roasting pan.
  • 5
    Bake 1 hour 20 minutes to ensure cake AND flan layer bake completely (toothpick inserted in center of cake will come out clean). Remove cake pan from water bath to cooling rack; remove foil. Cool at room temperature 1 hour. Refrigerate in pan, uncovered, 2 hours.
  • 6
    Remove from refrigerator; run thin metal spatula around outer and inside edges of pan to loosen cake. Place serving plate upside down on cake pan; turn plate and pan over. Remove pan. Spoon any remaining caramel from pan over top of cake. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.

  • A thinner caramel topping works best in this Chocoflan recipe. We tested with Smuckers® caramel topping.
  • The flan layer needs the entire time to bake; although the cake layer may be done earlier, the flan still needs the full bake time to set up.
  • To ensure that the cake and flan are baked and set, be sure to follow the baking, cooling and refrigeration times set in this flan cake recipe for success.
  • Serve your Chocoflan with additional caramel topping, if desired.
  • Be sure to refrigerate any remaining pieces of the chocolate flan cake.
  • Add 1 teaspoon vanilla to the flan mixture to give your chocoflan cake a little extra flavor.
