Method
 

  1. Prepare the caramel by cooking sugar and water over medium heat until it reaches a deep amber color. Pour into the baking mold.
  2. Blend the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth for the flan mixture.
  3. Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in one bowl. In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar, then add oil, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Combine dry and wet ingredients to make the chocolate cake batter.
  4. Pour chocolate cake batter into the pan, then gently layer the flan mixture on top using the back of a spoon to avoid mixing.
  5. Bake in a water bath at 350°F (180°C) for about 1 hour until the top is firm and a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Cool completely on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before unmolding.
  7. Decorate with extra caramel sauce and Chantilly cream before serving.

This chocoflan is best made a day in advance; it allows the flavors to meld together beautifully. Store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days for optimal freshness.
