A flancocho cake is a unique and delightful dessert that combines two beloved treats: flan and cake. This hybrid dessert features a layer of creamy caramel flan on top of a moist cake, creating a deliciously rich and decadent experience. The magic of flancocho lies in its distinct texture contrast and harmonious flavors.
Ingredients:
- Caramel: The base layer is a luscious caramel sauce, made by melting sugar until it turns golden brown. This caramel is poured into the bottom of the baking dish.
- Flan Layer: The flan mixture consists of eggs, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. This creamy custard is poured over the caramel layer.
- Cake Layer: The cake batter, often a simple vanilla or chocolate cake mix, is poured over the flan mixture. As the dessert bakes, the cake rises to the top while the flan settles at the bottom, creating the signature layered effect.
- Optional Garnishes: Fresh fruits, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of cinnamon can be added for extra flavor and decoration.
