Molten Cake is one of the MUST HAVE recipes. It’s simple, delicious and has an appealing presentation.
I make molten cake all the time even when nodody is come over to visit, just because, yes, I am a bad girl
sometimes, actually most of the time. I should really control my love for anything chocolate.
Another thing I love about it is the cooking time, it only takes about 12 to 15 minutes depending on the size. Also you can freeze them but if you do, make sure they come to room temperature before
you bake them.
Ingredients:
8oz Bittersweet chocolate
8 tablespoon butter (1 stick)
plus more for ramekins
3 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Generously butter four 6 ounce ramekins.
Place the prepared molds on a baking sheet and set aside. Melt the chocolates and butter in a double boiler. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the eggs and sugar until pale, about two minutes, beat in the vanilla. Stir in the egg mixture into the chocolate and then add the flour, mix well. Divide the batter among the prepared ramekins and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, the edges should be firm and set but the center will still look a little wet. Serve immediately with vanilla bean ice cream. You can serve them in the ramekins or run a knife around the edges to loosen and invert onto dessert plates.
Tried it – not sure if it is because of my oven, 15 minutes at 400F was too long. The bottom was too cooked through and top was not set. Need to try again at a different temp or different rake in the oven.
Made this last night for Valentine's Day and it is to die for death by chocolate
Yum – this salad looks amazing!!! I would happily enjoy this any time of day!
I made them yesterday and they turned out delicious. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
