Categories     dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped, divided
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 cup sugar, plus 2 tablespoons for dusting ramekins
1 cup butter, cubed, plus 2 tablespoons for ramekins
4 eggs
4 egg yolks
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 pint fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon Kirsch, optional

Steps:

  • For Cakes:
  • To make the ganache, melt 4 ounces of the chocolate with the heavy cream over a double boiler. Stir until smooth and chill until firm enough to scoop, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and butter 8 (7-ounce) ramekins. Coat the inside with 2 tablespoons of the sugar, making sure to tap out the excess.
  • In a medium bowl combine the remaining chocolate with 1 cup of butter over a double boiler until melted, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. In large bowl beat together the eggs, egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar until pale, thick and light. Sift the flour over top, and fold in the salt and almond extract. Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture until uniformly combined. Divide equally between the prepared ramekins.
  • Using a small scoop or tablespoon, form the chilled ganache into 8 balls.
  • Put 1 into the center of each ramekin and press down slightly to cover with the batter.
  • (Cakes can be prepared to this point, covered and held in the refrigerator for a few hours until ready to bake.) Arrange the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake until the tops look set, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and carefully invert the ramekins onto serving plates. Garnish with raspberry sauce and reserved raspberries and serve immediately.
  • For Raspberry Sauce and Garnish:
  • Reserve 8 raspberries for garnish. Mash the remaining raspberries through a fine meshed sieve into a small bowl. Discard the seeds. Add the 2 tablespoons of superfine sugar and the Kirsch and whisk until the sugar is dissolved.

MOLTEN CHOCOLATE CAKES WITH SUGAR-COATED RASPBERRIES



Molten Chocolate Cakes With Sugar-Coated Raspberries image

Dessert is individual molten chocolate cakes. They're simple and elegant, and they bake in under 10 minutes in a standard muffin pan. The best part about these little beauties is that the cake batter is extremely forgiving: You can make it up to six hours before you plan to serve the cakes. Fill the pans with batter and refrigerate, but remember to remove the pan far enough in advance of baking to let the batter return to room temperature. Because they bake for only 8 to 10 minutes, pop these little cakes into the oven as you're clearing the main course dishes and making coffee. From 2003 USA Today. *NOTE* This is a recipe adopted by me in wild zarr adoption fest, in September of 2006. When I make it I will certainly update the results!

Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup unsalted butter
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or 8 ounces chocolate candy bars, cut into bite-size chunks
5 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
4 teaspoons flour (or matzo meal, ground in a blender to a fine powder)
8 extra-large paper baking cups (or use regular paper muffin cups, which will make 12 cakes)
1 (6 ounce) container raspberries, barely moistened and rolled in about
1/2 cup sugar, right before serving

Steps:

  • Melt butter and chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water; remove from heat.
  • Beat eggs, sugar and salt with a hand mixer in a medium bowl until sugar dissolves. Beat egg mixture into chocolate until smooth. Beat in flour or matzo meal until just combined. (Batter can be made a day ahead; return to room temperature an hour or so before baking.)
  • Before serving dinner, adjust oven rack to middle position; heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Line a standard-size muffin tin (1/2 cup capacity) with 8 extra-large muffin papers (papers should extend above cups to facilitate removal). Spray muffin papers with vegetable cooking spray. Divide batter among muffin cups.
  • Bake until batter puffs but center is not set, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Carefully lift cakes from tin and set on a work surface. Pull papers away from cakes and transfer cakes to dessert plates.
  • Top each with sugared raspberries and serve immediately.
  • *Make sure you use unsalted margarine; otherwise, the cakes will be too salty. (You can use salted butter, if you like, but remember to omit the pinch of salt.).

Tips:

  • To ensure the chocolate cakes have a molten center, use high-quality chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. This will help the chocolate set properly and create a rich, decadent filling.
  • For a more intense chocolate flavor, use a combination of dark and semisweet chocolate. The dark chocolate will add depth of flavor while the semisweet chocolate will provide sweetness and balance.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the ramekins only halfway to allow room for the cakes to rise. If the ramekins are too full, the cakes may overflow and bake unevenly.
  • Bake the cakes until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly wobbly. This will ensure that the cakes have a molten center. If you bake the cakes for too long, they will become dry and overcooked.
  • Serve the cakes immediately after baking. This is when they are at their best, with a warm, molten center.
  • Top the cakes with sugar-coated raspberries for a sweet and tart garnish. The raspberries will also add a pop of color to the plate.
  • Enjoy the cakes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

Conclusion:

Molten chocolate cakes are a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a rich, chocolatey flavor and a molten center, these cakes are sure to impress your guests. By following the tips above, you can create perfect molten chocolate cakes every time.
