The Dogmother Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 These are small portion sized cakes, which are delicious topped with whipped cream mixed with a few drops of rosewater and some raspberries. Dark Chocolate Molten Lava Cakes What could be better than a chocolate cake for dessert? How about a chocolate cake that is served warm with a river of chocolate running from it. Using dark chocolate makes this recipe for Molten Lava Cakes better than any you can get in a restaurant. INGREDIENTS: • 5 - 6 ounces dark chocolate • 6 tablespoons butter • 1/2 cup sugar • 2 eggs • 1/2 cup flour • Optional: Whipped or ice cream PREPARATION: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease four 4-ounce custard cups. In double boiler, melt chocolate and butter. Stir in sugar. In a small bowl, lighly beat eggs. Add some chocolate mixture to eggs to temper eggs. Carefully, stir egg mixture into chocolate mixture. Add flour and combine completely. Add batter to custard cups. Place on baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Centers should be soft but sides should be done. Invert cups on individual serving plates. Remove cups after 2 minutes. Serve warm with whipped or ice cream.

The Dogmother Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 Sounds good. Do they contain free-range eggs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
