Can you believe this now the 7th chocoflan recipe I’ve developed? Pasteles imposibles are one of my favorite types of recipes to develop. Writing and developing a recipe for cake from scratch is already challenge. Having to ensure that both the flan and cake can work together takes great skill. Plus, I love the challenge!
Today we’re making a dessert that perfectly captures the essence of summer – the Carlota de Mango con Limon. This delightful recipe, straight from the pages of my latest cookbook “Chicano Bakes,” brings together the sweetness of ripe mangoes and the bright zest of fresh lime to create a dessert that’s as beautiful as it is delicious. Let’s dive into the simple steps that will have you savoring every bite of this tropical treat.
Since the Dulce de Leche Chocoflan from my first cookbook was such a big hit and went viral when the first book came out, I knew I wanted to develop another chocoflan recipe for Chicano Bakes, and well, I ended up developing THREE new recipes. In the cakes chapter, you’ll find a recipe for a classic chocoflan, the spiced pumpkin chocoflan, and a red velvet chocoflan.
