Fer’s Easy Chocoflan Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk “la lechera”
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup cajeta or “dulce de leche” if you can’t find it, you can use caramel sauce (Safeway has dulce de leche in the Hispanic Foods aisle)
  • 1 box of chocolate cake mix and whatever it calls for on the back of the box (or your favorite chocolate cake recipe)

Directions:

  1. Put an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
  2. Coat a Bundt pan with a little butter, then coat the bottom with 1/4 cup cajeta and put it in a large roasting pan. (The roasting pan will serve as a water bath during baking.)
  3.  For the cake:  follow the instructions on your chocolate cake box.
  4. For the flan:  In a blender, combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream cheese, eggs and vanilla. Blend on high for 30 seconds.
  5. Scoop the cake batter into the prepared Bundt pan and spreading evenly. Slowly pour the flan mixture over the cake batter. Cover with foil and add about 1-inch of hot water to the roasting pan.
  6. Carefully slide the pan into the oven, and bake 1 hour, until the surface of the cake is firm to the touch, or an inserted toothpick/butter knife comes out clean.
  7. When cake is done, remove from the water bath and cool completely to room temperature, about 1 hour.  We refrigerated our overnight and it was deliciosa y muy riquísima!

Cook’s Notes: The batters may appear to mix when you pour them into the pan, but they completely separate while baking, just like is shown in the photo above.

Aveda Chocoflan Two-Tone Hair Dye Job

And NOW, on to the hair dye done by Alfred with some awesome-smelling natural Aveda hair products.  You all remember the inspiration, huh?  I think he nailed it!  Apparently, he took my level 2 hair up to a level 8 using only developer (big deal, no bleach was used on my virgin hair).  Looks like chocolate cake and cajeta, yum.
