Time 2h50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 ounces semisweet chocolate morsels
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons Amaretto (or Grand Marnier or Raspberry liqueur)
8 fresh raspberries, perfect
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate chips
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3 eggs, at room temperature
3 egg yolks, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
whipped cream (optional)
ice cream (optional)

Steps:

  • TRUFFLES: Combine the chocolate, cream, and butter in a small heatproof bowl, set over simmering water, and let melt.
  • When almost melted, remove from the heat and stir the mixture until smooth. Stir in flavoring of your choice and refrigerate until thick enough to mound on a spoon, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
  • Line a baking tray with waxed or parchment paper. Scrape the chocolate mixture into pastry bag fitted with a #3 plain tip. Pipe eight 1-inch mounds onto the prepared tray.
  • Place 1 raspberry in center of each chocolate mound and pipe a little more of the chocolate mixture to enclose completely. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • CAKE: Position a rack in the center of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 8 oversize muffin cups with cooking spray. Line bottoms with rounds of waxed paper. Set aside.
  • In the top of a double boiler or a small heatproof bowl set over simmering water, melt together the chocolate and butter. Cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, in the large bowl beat on high speed, eggs, egg yolks, and sugar until tripled in volume, about 5 minutes.
  • On low speed, add in the chocolate mixture just until combined. Remove the bowl and fold in the flour, using a rubber spatula.
  • Spoon a little of the batter into each of the prepared cups top with 1 truffle, and cover with the remaining batter.
  • Arrange cups on a baking tray and bake 15 minutes or until edges of the cakes begin to pull away from the sides of the cups. Let stand 10 minutes.
  • Invert onto individual dessert plates and carefully peel off paper. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream next to each cake and a few fresh raspberries.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but I even liked these cakes. They were so moist and fluffy, and the ganache was just the right amount of sweetness.

I was disappointed with these cakes. They were dry and the ganache was too sweet. I won't be making them again.

These cakes were a bit too rich for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with a different type of chocolate next time.

These cakes were a complete disaster. I followed the recipe exactly, but they turned out dry and crumbly.
