Re: [CnD] Lava cakes
Chocolate Lava Cakes 1 2/3 cups chocolate chips 10 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional) 8 large eggs 3 cups confectioners' sugar 1 cup Unbleached All-Purpose Flour Melt together the chocolate chips and butter, stirring till smooth. In a separate bowl, beat together the salt, vanilla, espresso powder, and the eggs, beating till smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar, and beat again till smooth; the mixture will start to build in volume. Add the chocolate mixture, then the flour, stirring till smooth; the batter will be a light "hot cocoa" color. Heavily grease 18 muffin cups. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling them right to the brim. Refrigerate the cakes till they're thoroughly chilled, 3 hours or longer. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Bake the cakes for 13 minutes exactly! An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center will read in excess of 165 degrees F. If you don't have a thermometer, poke open the top of one cake with a sharp knife tip; you should see molten batter inside. However, the cake should also appear well set all around the edges. When you've determined they're done, remove the cakes from the oven, and set the pan on a rack. Set a timer for 5 minutes; when the timer goes off, run a dull (butter) knife around the edge of each cake, and very carefully lift them onto a serving tray or onto individual serving plates. Serve immediately. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of Bridget Micallef via Cookinginthedark Sent: Monday, June 1, 2020 8:29 AM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: Bridget Micallef Subject: [CnD] Lava cakes Hi Does anyone have a recipe for lava cakes please?
