Molten Chocolate Cake

Valentine’s Day is coming.  Make this for your sweetie.  It’s heavenly!

• 11 tablespoons butter
• 5 ounces bittersweet chocolate
• 3 egg yolks
• 3 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup flour

Melt chocolate and butter together.  Cool slightly.  Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together the yolks and eggs and then mix in the powdered sugar.  Whisk this into the chocolate mixture and then whisk in the flour.  Fill 6 buttered 4-ounce ramekins with the batter.  Refrigerate until ready to bake, or bake immediately.  Bake in a preheated 450 degree oven for 5 to 6 minutes if it is cold, or 4 to 5 minutes if it is room temperature.  Turn out of ramekins immediately onto plate and serve warm.

You may put a dollop of whipped cream on top, drizzle with dark or white chocolate, sprinkle with powdered sugar or eat just like the way it is.

This recipe is easily doubled for a large crowd.

Serves 6.
