Ingredients:
- 1/8 cup of butter (2 tablespoons)
- 75g of 70% cocoa dark chocolate (e.g. Lindt)
- About 1/4 cup of sugar (maybe 1/3 cup)
- 1/3 cup of half-half (maybe 1/2 cup)
- 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
- 2 eggs (will need to separate yolks from whites)
- 1 tablespoon of flour (yes, only one)
- Little salt (for whipping up the egg whites)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Process:
- Turn oven on to 350F
- In a plastic bowl, melt chocolate, butter, & half-half in microwave (use a low power setting such as defrost to ensure the chocolate doesn't get "cooked"). Mix in the cocoa powder.
- In a metallic bowl, add the egg-whites, a little salt (1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon) and whip up (electric mixer is usually best).
- Let chocolate mixture cool if it's warmer than skin temperature. Mix in the vanilla extract to chocolate mixture, then mix in the egg yolks.
- Slowly fold/blend in the egg-whites, don't over mix (mixture should look like a liquid mousse).
- Pour batter into non-stick (or silicone) muffin pan and bake (in pre-heated oven) at 350F for 12-15 minutes.
- Let cool at room temperature.
