• 2 1/4 teaspoons (7g) dried yeast
• 2 large eggs
• 1 egg yolk
Filling:
• 1/2 cup (120g) chocolate spread (e.g., Nutella or similar)

Brownie mix:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
3/4 cup (130g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons (15g) unsweetened cocoa powder

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar,
and salt.
Add the eggs, egg yolk, and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Add the butter and knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1-2 hours, until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle, about 1/4-inch (6mm) thick.
Spread the chocolate evenly over the dough.
While the rolls are cooling, prepare the
Brownie mix.

Brownie mix and Assembly:

Preheat the oven to 350ºF (175°C). Grease a 30cm round baking pan
In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and chocolate together (microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring in between, or melt over a double boiler).
Let the melted mixture cool slightly, then stir in both sugars.
Add eggs and vanilla, whisking until smooth and glossy.
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold until just combined, without overmixing.
In the prepared baking dish, place the baked chocolate buns, leaving spaces between them.
Pour the Brownie batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Chocolate Flan Cake (Chocoflan)

Ingredients:

Caramel:
200g (1 cup) caster sugar
2 tablespoons water

Flan:
6 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
250g (1¼ cups) caster sugar
1 liter (4 cups) whole milk

Cake:
1 box (about 500g / 17.5 oz) store-bought chocolate cake mix, plus ingredients listed on the box (usually eggs, oil, and water)

Instructions:

Make the Caramel:

In a small saucepan, combine 200g (1 cup) caster sugar and 2 tablespoons water to dampen it.
Heat over medium-high heat without stirring, just gently swirling the pan.

Once most of the sugar has melted and turned golden amber, stir briefly to incorporate any unmelted sugar.

Immediately pour the caramel into a 12-cup (2.8-3L) Bundt pan, swirling it to coat the bottom. Set aside to cool slightly.

Prepare the Flan Layer:

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Spray the Bundt pan (with caramel) generously with non-stick spray (sides too).
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla sugar and milk. Mix until smooth and fully combined. Gently pour the flan mixture over the caramel in the pan.

Add the Cake Layer:

Prepare the chocolate cake batter according to the package instructions.
Carefully spoon or dollop the cake batter over the flan layer (it will float on top)

Bake:

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a skewer or toothpick inserted into the cake layer comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature in the pan. Then, refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight for best results.

To Serve:

Remove the pan from the fridge.
Run a knife gently around the edges to loosen. Set the bottom of the pan in a bowl of hot water for 10-15 seconds to help release. Invert onto a large serving platter. Slice, serve, and enjoy your chocolate flan cake! by @freshlypictured
