Ingredients
- 2 packages of toasted cookies
- 1 envelope of flan preparation
- Hot chocolate
- 1 liter of whole milk
- Sugar
Preparation
- First we have to prepare the chocolate, use half a liter of milk and add cocoa until you get a thick chocolate.
- In another saucepan, we are preparing the flan according to the instructions indicated by the manufacturer.
- We are preparing the mold, it is preferable that it be made of glass so that the cake does not stick.
- First, we are placing a base of cookies to see what we are going to need, if there is any gap, use pieces of cookie until the entire bottom is covered.
- Once you have it ready, go dipping the cookies in milk one by one and placing them in the mold.
- Now we have to start to assemble the cake, first we put a layer of flan on the base of the cookies.
- Spread the flan well so that the entire base is covered.
- We cover with another layer of cookies dipped in milk.
- The next layer will be chocolate, spread a generous layer being careful to cover all the cookies.
- We put a layer of cookies soaked in milk again, covering well all the holes in the mold.
- Again we put a layer of flan, this time using everything that is left in the container.
- We put the last layer of cookies soaked in milk, you will need to put more cookies as you make the layers, since the mold will widen.
- Finally, we spread the last layer of chocolate to the cup.
- We place some toothpicks on the cake and cover with a plastic wrap.
- Let it temper for about 15 minutes before putting it in the refrigerator.
- To finish, we leave the cake in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, the longer the cake will be richer.
Notes
The cookies can be rectangular or round, depending on the shape of your mold you can use one or the other.
