Steps:
- Butter and lightly flour 6 (6-ounce) ramekins. Tap out any excess flour.
- In a small saucepan, bring to a boil 2 inches of water. In a large glass bowl, add butter, chocolate and espresso powder. Lower heat and place bowl over the simmering water. Slowly whisk mixture until the chocolate is almost completely melted. Remove bowl from heat and continue to whisk until all chocolate has melted. Allow to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, add eggs, yolks, and sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat until light and fluffy and pale in color. Reduce speed to medium-low and slowly pour in the chocolate mixture. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Do not overwork the batter.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Divide the batter between the molds. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place chocolate molds onto baking sheet and place in oven for 7 minutes. If not baking immediately, cover chocolate molds with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 8 hours. When ready to bake, place refrigerated chocolate molds onto baking sheet and place in oven for 10 minutes. The top and sides should be cooked and dry and the inside will be runny.
- Using oven mitts, carefully invert each mold onto a plate and let it sit for 10 seconds. Then lift 1 corner of the ramekin and the cake should slip out. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon Frangelico over each cake. Spoon berries around the chocolate cake and garnish with mint. Serve warm.
WARM CHOCOLATE STOUT CAKES WITH WHISKEY CARAMEL SAUCE
Steps:
- For the whiskey caramel sauce: Combine the sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, swirling the pan but not stirring, until the mixture is dark amber, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the heavy cream, vanilla and salt until smooth. Whisk in the whiskey. Transfer to a bowl and cool completely (the caramel will thicken as it cools).
- For the chocolate stout cakes: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to bubble, about 5 minutes. Add the cocoa powder and whisk until dissolved and the mixture is smooth, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and whisk in the stout beer. Set aside to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, spray a 12-cup muffin tin generously with nonstick canola oil spray and wipe out any oil that pools at the bottom of the cups. Dust the muffin cups with cocoa powder and tap out the excess.
- Whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
- Whisk the egg, Greek yogurt and vanilla extract in large bowl.
- Whisk half of the stout beer mixture into the egg mixture and blend until combined. Whisk in the remaining half of the stout beer mixture and blend until smooth. Add the flour mixture and blend until just combined.
- Divide the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Bake the cakes, rotating the muffin tin halfway through, until a tester or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the muffin tin to a wire rack and let the cakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes.
- Loosen the edges of each cake with an offset spatula, then carefully remove the cakes from the muffin tin. Serve the warm cakes upside-down on individual plates drizzled with the Whiskey Caramel Sauce and sprinkled with the toffee bits.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom of a 10 inch springform pan, and line with parchment paper.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir in chocolate, and continue to stir until almost melted. Remove from heat, and stir until melted and smooth. In a large bowl, stir together 1 1/4 cups sugar and the cocoa powder. Whisk in the eggs until well blended, then whisk in the chocolate and butter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake for about 45 minutes in the preheated oven. The cake is ready when the edges have nicely puffed and the surface is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken. Cool cake in the pan over a wire rack. Run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen the cake, then remove the sides of the pan, and invert onto a serving plate. Remove the parchment paper.
- In a heavy saucepan, stir together 1 1/2 cups of sugar, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook without stirring until the syrup is a deep amber color. For an accurate color check, dip a metal spoon into the syrup and lift it out of the pan to check the color. Once the syrup is amber, remove from the heat. Gradually stir in the cream. The mixture will bubble vigorously. If lumps form, stir gently over low heat to dissolve them. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Cut the cake into wedges while warm, and serve with caramel sauce spooned over it. You can also chill the cake and sauce, then warm again before serving.

WARM CHOCOLATE-CHIPOTLE CAKES WITH CINNAMON-CARAMEL SAUCE
Steps:
- Prepare a medium heat fire (350°F) in a wood-fired oven or cooker. Butter eight 4-ounce ramekins and dust with sugar, knocking out the excess sugar.
- In the wood-fired oven or cooker, toast the chiles in a dry skillet, turning as they toast, for about 2 minutes. Discard the stems, seeds, and ribs, then soak the chiles in hot water to cover until softened, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserving the soaking liquid.
- Puree the drained chiles in a food processor or blender, adding enough soaking liquid to form a paste. Force the paste through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl and discard the solids. Set aside 1 1/2 tablespoons of the chile paste and freeze the remainder for another use.
- Bring the prune juice and sugar to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Pour the hot sugar syrup over the chocolate in a large bowl, stirring until the chocolate is melted. You may need to place it over a simmering water bath to melt completely. Add the butter and stir until melted. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the 1 1/2 tablespoons chile paste, the flour, cinnamon, and salt.
- Place the ramekins in a baking pan; divide the batter among the sugar-lined ramekins and place in the oven or cooker. Fill the pan with 1/2 inch hot water and bake, uncovered, until the cakes are firm and crusted, 30 to 35 minutes. Check after 20 minutes for doneness, as each oven is different. The cakes need to be moist, not dry.
- If using a Big Green Egg, put the plate setter in place with the grate on top, creating an oven. Place the sheet pan on the grate, fill with hot water, and close the lid.
- Transfer the ramekins to a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes. Unmold the warm cakes directly onto serving plates, crusty top side up. Drizzle with the caramel sauce and serve.
- Cinnamon-Caramel Sauce
- Combine the sugar and water in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium-high; boil without stirring until the syrup becomes a deep amber color, occasionally brushing down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush and swirling the pan. Remove from the heat. Stir in the ground cinnamon until completely combined. Gradually add the cream and stir over low heat until the sauce is smooth. Remove from the heat and let stand until cool and pourable, about 30 minutes.
- Store in a plastic squeeze bottle and use immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 month.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Chocolate chips made with a high percentage of cocoa solids will provide a more intense chocolate flavor.
- To make the cakes more moist, use buttermilk instead of regular milk. Buttermilk adds a slight tanginess to the cakes as well.
- Be sure to not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dense cakes.
- For a gooey center, bake the cakes for the minimum amount of time. If you want a more well-done cake, bake for a few minutes longer.
- Let the cakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- For a smooth and silky caramel sauce, be sure to stir the sauce constantly while it is cooking. Do not let the sauce boil.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel sauce by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If the caramel forms a firm ball, it is ready.
Conclusion:
These warm chocolate chipotle cakes with cinnamon caramel sauce are the perfect dessert for any occasion. They are moist, gooey, and full of flavor. The chipotle peppers add a slight spiciness to the cakes, which is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the caramel sauce. These cakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
