Impossible cake

Prep time: 15 mins
Baking time: 35 mins
Servings: 8 persons

Ingredients:

For Caramel flan :
1 packet ready to use (caramel flan) creme caramel
2 cups milk
I use Dr.Oetker for the creme caramel layer.

For Cake:
4 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup melted butter
2 cups all purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsweetened Cocoa powder
1 tbsp Baking Powder

The way:

Preheat oven at 180°C.
Empty the sauce caramel bag in a bottom of 20 cm cake mold, set a side.
In a suacepan, melt the caramel flan mix in 2 cups of milk. Stir on medium heat until getting hot, but not boiling.
Pour the flan mixture into the cake mold.
In a bowl whisk the eggs, sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture white in color, then add the milk and butter, give it a quick whisk.
Add the seften dry ingredients into two phases until you have a soft cake mixture.
Above the caramel flan mixture pour the cake mixture.
Sit the cake mold in a deep tin at least 7.5cm deep, pour enough boiling water in the tin around the cake mold, so it comes halfway up the side of the mold..
Bake the cake at 180°C for 35 mins.
Let it cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then chill in the fridge at least 2 hours.
Flip the cake mold upside down in a large serving dish.
