Chocolate Flan Cake (Chocoflan)

I have always wanted to make this Chocoflan Recipe since the day I saw Marcela make this on one of her episodes of  Mexican Made Easy at Food Network. And then a friend of mine posted this on her new foodblog. Again, I got excited to make it and I even bought all the ingredients needed. But my husband is allergic to dairy so I am just waiting for a big party or potluck so that I can finally try this awesome recipe. I need someone to help me eat this "look so delish cake". I am glad that my friend was kind enough to share this Chocolate Flan Recipe on my blog. So there, give it a try and let me know how it turns out.
