CHOCOLATE FLAN
CARMEL:
1 cup sugar
CUSTARD:
1 can evaporated milk
2 oz. semi-sweet chocolate pieces
1 cinnamon stick
6 eggs
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
CARAMEL:
Melt 1cup sugar in a non-stick pan, over low heat. Keep your eye on it. If it burns you will have to start over. It just needs to melt that's all.
Immediately pour the caramel into a metal pan and swirl it around to cover the bottom and sides. Your have to be quick because once it starts to cool down you don't stand a chance. The caramel should have cooled down before you pour the egg mixture in it.
CUSTARD:
Heat the milk, chocolate pieces, and cinnamon, stirring occasionally to help the chocolate dissolve.
Remove the cinnamon stick. Let this cool down to just warm.
Mix the eggs, condensed milk, and 1/2 cup sugar together. Gradually stir into the milk mixture. Carefully pour into prepared pan.
Place a bano de Maria or bain marie (pan with 1 to 2-inches hot water) in the oven. Set pan with flan in the bain marie.
Bake at 350 degrees F for about 50 minutes or until golden. Test with a fork, it should come out clean.
Remove from oven, cool and refrigerate at least 3 hours.
