Molten Chocolate Cake








Ingredients:





Ganache Filling:





1/3 cup heavy cream


2 1/2 teaspoons light corn syrup


1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate, chopped finely





Cake Batter:





2/3 cup butter, softened


1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate, melted


2 tablespoons unsweetened chocolate, melted


3 eggs


2 egg yolks


1/2 cup all-purpose flour


2/3 cup confectioners 鈥?sugar





Preparation:





Preheat the oven to 375潞F.





Bring the cream and the corn syrup to a simmer and pour over the chopped chocolate. Let sit for 5 minutes and mix until smooth. Place in the freezer until just firm enough to scoop, about 20 minutes. Stir the ganache occasionally while it is in the freezer.





While the ganache is cooling, whisk the butter and the two chocolates together and add to the eggs.





Sift the flour and sugar together and fold into the chocolate mixture.





Butter and flour eight 4-fluid-ounce ramekins. Fill the ramekins with 3 tablespoons batter and make a small well in the center by pushing the batter up slightly on the sides. However, the bottom of the ramekin should not be visible.





Scoop 1 tablespoon of the ganache and place it in the center of each ramekin.





Spoon another 2 tablespoons of cake batter on top of the ganache, making sure to seal it between the two layers of batter. The batter should come up to 1/4 inch from the top of the ramekin.





Bake the cakes in a 375掳F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the top of the cake springs back lightly to the touch.





Loosen the edges of the cakes before unmolding, and place on a small dessert plate.Any easy recipe for chocolate cake??

Chocolate pudding cake


7 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped


2/3 cup whole milk


1/3 cup sugar


1 large egg yolk


1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened


1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract





Place the chocolate in a medium bowl and set aside. Combine the milk and all but 1-tablespoon of the sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Stop stirring and cook until the milk begins to bubble around the edge of the pan. Remove the pan from the heat. Whisk together the egg yolk and the remaining 1-tablespoon sugar in a small bowl. Pour half of the hot milk over the yolk mixture, whisking constantly to combine. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and reaches 185 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Immediately pour the mixture over the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate is melted. Add the butter 1/2-tablespoon at a time, whisking until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Whisk in the vanilla. Scrape the batter into a 6-inch round cake pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer for at least 6 hours, or overnight. To unmold the cake, carefully immerse the pan in hot water for a few seconds. Wipe the bottom and sides of the pan dry and invert the cake onto a serving platter. Decorate the top of the cake by running a hot dull knife across its surface in a wave pattern (dip the knife in hot water and wipe completely dry before using it). Lightly dust the top of the cake with sifted cocoa powder. Allow the cake to stand at room temperature for 45 minutes before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator. Note: It is important that the butter be at room temperature, or it will not blend completely into the chocolate mixture and there will be a small lumps of butter in the cake. You can make this 2 or even 3 days in advance and freeze it. When you need it, unmold it and let it stand at room temperature for 45 minutes so its not freezer cold. Or unmold it and then store in the freezer, whole or cut into portions, for up to 2 months.
I think this is the one you are looking for......





Chocolate Pound Cake





3录 hours 1戮 hours prep





INGREDIENTS





3 tablespoons unsweetened dutch cocoa


1 1/2 teaspoons unsweetened dutch cocoa


3 tablespoons boiling water


1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla


3 large eggs


1 1/4 cups cake flour, sifted


3/4 cup sugar


2 tablespoons sugar


3/4 teaspoon baking powder


1/4 teaspoon salt


13 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened





DIRECTIONS





Preheat oven to 350.


Use a 8 x 4 x 2 1/2'; loaf pan, (4 cups) or any 6 cup loaf pan or fluted tube pan, greased and floured.


In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the cocoa and water until smooth.


Allow to cool to room temperature and lightly whisk in the vanilla and eggs.


In a large mixing bowl combine the remaing dry ingredients and mix on low spped for 30 seconds to blend.


Add 1/2 the chocolate mixture and the butter.


Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are moistened.


Increase to medium speed and beat for 1 minute to develop the cake's structure. Scrape down the sides.


Gradually add the remaining chocolate mixture in 2 batches, beating 20 seconds after each addition to incorporate the ingredients and strengthen the structure. Scrape down the sides.


Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.


The batter will be almost 1/2'; from the top of a 4 cup pan.


(if your pan is slightly smaller, use any excess batter for cupcakes.) Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, (40 to 50 minutes in a fluted tube pan) or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.


Place loosely with buttered foil over the cake after 20 minutes to prevent overbrowning.


The cake should start to shrink away from the sides of the pan only after removal from the oven.


Let the cake cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes.


Loosen the sides with a metal spatula and invert onto a greased wire rack.


If baked in a loaf pan, to keep the bottom from splitting, reinvert so that the top is up and cool completely before wrapping airtight. TOPPING: this is for extra moistness and gives a subtle coffee accent....


in a small pa, stir together 1/4 cup water and 2 Tbsp sugar.


Bring to a full rolling boil.


Cover and remove from heat. When cool, add 1 Tbsp kahlua.


When cake is baked, brush half the syrup onto the top.


Cool the cake 10 minutes and invert it onto a lightly greased rack.


Brush the bottom and sides with remaining syrup.


Reinvert onto rack, top side up, to finish cooling.
