Time 45m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
8 ounces bitter-sweet chocolate, preferably Scharffen Berger
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon finely ground sea salt, preferably gray salt
powdered sugar, for dusting

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degree F.
  • Spray a standard 12 cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. line the cups with paper liners and spray liner with cooking spray. Dust each mold with cocoa powder, tapping out the excess.

Pour the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and gently mix just until the homogeneous. Mixing too much will prevent the eggs from rising in the oven.

While hot, add a chunk of remaining 3 ounces of chocolate in the center of each, by gently pushing it through the top of the cupcake in the center.
