Make caramel by heating 1/2 cup sugar in a pot at 180 degrees Celsius, stirring until it turns golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Once the caramel is ready, pour it into the baking dish, ensuring to coat the sides as well.

In a blender, combine 4 eggs, 1/2 cup sugar (adjust to taste), 1 cup lactose-free milk, 300 grams sweetened condensed milk, 40 grams cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a little bit of rum.

Blend the mixture for about 1 minute until well combined.

Pour the blended mixture into the caramel-coated baking dish.

Place the baking dish in a larger pan filled with hot water to create a water bath.

Bake in the oven for about 1 to 1.5 hours, checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick.

After baking, let it cool for about 30 minutes before inverting onto a plate for serving.
