About Chocoflan

Chocoflan, often referred to as "impossible cake," is a decadent dessert with origins in Mexican cuisine. It consists of two distinct layers: a rich chocolate cake base topped with creamy, caramel-flavored flan, separated by a luscious layer of cajeta or caramel sauce. The magic happens during baking, where the layers flip to create their iconic appearance. Key ingredients include eggs, sugar, butter, chocolate, condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla. From a nutritional standpoint, Chocoflan is high in sugar and fats, making it an indulgent treat best enjoyed in moderation. While the eggs provide a source of protein and the milk contributes calcium, these health benefits are outweighed by the dessert’s calorie-dense nature. Packed with refined carbohydrates and added sugars, it is best reserved for special occasions as a sweet indulgence rather than a regular part of a balanced diet.
