Ingredients
- 8 ounce top-quality bittersweet or possibly semi-sweet chocolate
- 6 Tbsp. butter
- 1/4 c. cocoa
- 4 x egg whites
- 4 Tbsp. brown sugar
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter and sugar 8 individual muffin c. or possibly ramekins.
- Heat the chocolate and butter together in the top of a double boiler or possibly in a microwave, stirring frequently till smooth. Remove from the heat and sift in the cocoa, whisk till smooth.
- Meanwhile beat the egg whites in a stand mixer or possibly by hand till they form soft peaks, add in the sugar and beat a few moments more.
- Fold one third of the egg whites into the chocolate with a rubber spatula, thoroughly incorporating. Gently mix in the rest. You may make the batter to this point and chill it for several days.
- Fill the c. about two thirds full. Bake till they have risen and cracked on top but are still a bit runny in the center, about 7 or possibly 8 min. They'll take a moment longer if you made the batter in advanced and refrigerated it.
- Let the cakes sit for a few min then turn them out and serve immediately with lots of whipped cream.
- This recipe is my all-time favourite way to show off the star ingredient: chocolate. It's an incredible little cake with deep rich flavour and a hot gooey center. What could be better
- Timing Hints: The batter can be made several days in advance and refrigerated.
- Makes 6 to 8 cakes
