Ingredients
UnitsScale
1/2cup granulated sugar (for caramel)
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2cup all-purpose flour
1/4cup cocoa powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4cup granulated sugar
1/4cup milk
1/4cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a muffin or mini bundt pan.
In a small saucepan, melt sugar over medium heat until golden and caramelized. Quickly pour into the bottom of each mold.
In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth to make the flan mixture.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and sugar. Add milk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract; mix until smooth to form the chocolate batter.
Spoon chocolate batter evenly into each caramel-lined mold.
Gently pour the flan mixture over the cake batter in each mold.
Place the filled pan into a larger baking dish and add hot water to create a water bath.
Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Invert to serve, optionally topped with fresh berries or whipped cream.
Notes
Use a water bath to ensure even baking and a silky flan texture.
Cool fully before inverting to maintain clean layers.
Perfect make-ahead dessert for parties and holidays.
