Leche Flan Cake

Ingredients
  • Leche Flan

For caramelization:

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water

For Leche Flan:


8 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
2 cups milk
vanilla/lemon rind


  • Cake

Part 1:

1 cup self-raising flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup oil
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup milk

Part 2:

3 egg whites
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 tsp cream of tartar

Procedure:


  1. Heat 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup of water in a low heat until it is caramelized.
  2. Pour into a mould, this time I used a round mould and set aside.
  3. Prepare the leche flan mixture by combining all leche flan ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
  4. You need to prepare the cake mixture before pouring the leche flan mixture into the mould.
  5. In a bowl, combine Part 1 cake ingredients set aside.
  6. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff and foamy. 
  7. Add sugar gradually beating continuously until soft peaks are formed.
  8. Fold in the beaten egg whites to the Part 1 cake mixture.
  9. It's now time to pour the leche flan mixture to the mould.
  10. Then pour the cake mixture.  Don't worry the cake mixture is less dense so it will float on top of leche flan.
  11. Bake for 25 minutes at 160 deg C.
  12. Let it cool before removing from the mould.
