Steps:
- Place the flour, sifted cocoa powder, and salt in a bowl and whisk. Combine the eggs, sugar, vanilla in a stand mixer and whisk on med-low speed, scraping down sides and bottom of the bowl. With the mixer running, alternating between the two, add the butter and flour in 3 additions. Then mix to combine well, scraping the bowl as necessary.
- Remove the bowl, fold in chocolate chips. Let sit in a cool spot ( not the refrigerator) for 2 hours. The batter can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to two days, but make sure to let sit at room temp for two hours before filling the molds.
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Using a pastry bag or spoon, fill the bouchon mold, stopping just below the rim.
- Bake for 12 minutes in a convection oven, or 16 minutes ins a standard oven. Remove mold from the oven and let stand 10 minutes(so that they will hold their shape), then unmold the bouchons on a cooling rack, turn right side up and let cool completely.
- Dust the tops with powdered sugar.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*F.
- Place muffin liners in a 12 cup muffin pan. Set aside.
- Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into a large bowl. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, mix eggs and sugar with a handheld mixer on medium speed for about 3 minutes, or until very pale in color. Mix in vanilla.
- On low speed, add about 1/3 of the dry ingredients, then 1/3 of butter. Continue alternating with the remaining flour and butter. Add the chocolate chips and mix to combine. The batter can be refrigerated up to one day.
- Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. When the tops look shiny and set(like a brownie), test one cake with a toothpick: it should come out clean but not dry.
- Move the bouchons in their liners to a cooling rack. After a few minutes, invert the bouchons and let them cool upside down in their liners; then lift off the liners.
- The bouchons are best eaten the day they are baked.
- Invert bouchons and dust them with confectioner's sugar.
- Serve with ice cream if you like!
- Makes 12 servings. Enjoy!

Tips:
- To make the perfect chocolate bouchons, it is important to use high-quality chocolate. A good quality chocolate will have a smooth texture and a rich flavor.
- Make sure to temper the chocolate before you start making the bouchons. Tempering the chocolate will help it to set properly and give it a glossy finish.
- When you are piping the chocolate into the molds, make sure to do it slowly and carefully. This will help to prevent the chocolate from becoming too thick and clumpy.
- Tap the molds gently on the counter after you have piped the chocolate into them. This will help to release any air bubbles that may have formed in the chocolate.
- Refrigerate the chocolate bouchons for at least 30 minutes before you serve them. This will help them to set properly and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
Chocolate bouchons are a delicious and elegant dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a special occasion or a simple snack. With a little bit of practice, you can easily make chocolate bouchons at home. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give chocolate bouchons a try.
