MEXICAN CHOCOLATE FLAN
I had chocolate flan at a local Mexican restaurant, and it was to die for. I did an Internet search for a recipe, and came up with this one from www.jalapenocafe.com - haven't tried it yet, but it sure sounds good!

Steps:
- Combine the first amount of sugar with the water and lemon juice in a small, heavy-based saucepan.
- Cook over gentle heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Swirl the pan from time to time, but do not stir.
- Once the sugar is liquified, bring the syrup to a boil and cook until golden brown.
- While preparing the syrup, heat 4 custard cups in a 350 degree oven.
- When the syrup is ready, pour into the dishes and swirl to coat the sides and base evenly.
- Leave to cool at room temperature.
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces and heat with the milk and cinnamon, stirring occasionally to help the chocolate dissolve.
- Whisk the whole eggs and the yolks together with the remaining sugar until slightly frothy.
- Gradually whisk in the chocolate milk.
- Remove cinnamon stick.
- Carefully pour the chocolate custard into the custard cups and place them in a roasting pan.
- Pour hand hot water in pan to a depth of one inch.
- Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake the custards until just slightly wobbly in the center, about 20-30 minutes.
- Cool at room temperature and refrigerate for several hours or overnight before serving.
- Loosen the custards carefully from the sides of the dishes and invert onto serving plates.
- Shake to allow the custard to drop out.
