Time 3h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
1 (13 ounce) can Mexican cajeta caramel
1 (18.25 ounce) box devil's food cake mix
1 ½ cups water
3 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
5 eggs
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
½ cup whole milk
1 ½ teaspoons Mexican vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 15-cup fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with cooking spray.
  • Pour cajeta into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave until smooth, 20 to 30 seconds. Pour into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Combine cake mix, water, 3 eggs, and vegetable oil in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium and beat until batter is smooth, about 2 minutes.
  • Pour cake batter over cajeta in the pan.
  • Combine condensed milk, evaporated milk, 5 eggs, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract in a blender; blend until smooth.
  • Pour milk mixture slowly over cake batter.
  • Wrap pan tightly with aluminum foil; place in a large baking dish. Pour enough water into the baking dish to come 2 inches up the sides of the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 2 hours. Remove pan from the baking dish; let cool for 15 minutes. Unwrap the aluminum foil; invert cake onto a large rimmed plate. Let cake cool completely, about 30 minutes. Chill before serving.

Tips:

  • For a smooth flan layer, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This will help prevent lumps.
  • Do not overbeat the egg mixture, as this can create air bubbles that will result in a less smooth texture.
  • When pouring the flan mixture over the chocolate cake layer, do so slowly and carefully to prevent the layers from mixing together. This will help create a distinct two-layer effect.
  • Bake the cake in a water bath to prevent the top from overcooking and cracking.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before serving to ensure the center is set.

Conclusion:

This chocolate flan cake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate cake layer and creamy, custard-like flan layer, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. The cake is relatively easy to make, but it does require some time to prepare. However, the end result is definitely worth the effort.
