Time 37m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 1/2 ounces imported bittersweet chocolate (preferably El Rey or Valrhona), coarsely chopped
11 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in large pieces
3 large eggs
3 large egg yolks
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour, sifted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Butter and flour six 6-ounce custard cups.
  • Place 5 1/2 ounces of the chocolate and the butter in a metal bowl, and set it over a pan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth. Cool slightly.
  • Using a standard electric mixer with the whisk attachment, beat the eggs, yolks and sugar at medium-high speed until they are pale and thick, about 10 minutes.
  • Reduce the speed, and gradually mix in the flour.
  • Add the chocolate mixture to the flour mixture, and continue to beat until thick and glossy, about 5 minutes.
  • Divide half of the mixture among the prepared custard cups. Divide the remaining 2 ounces of coarsely chopped chocolate among them, placing the chunks in the very center of the chocolate mixture (there should be about 1 tablespoon of chopped chocolate per custard cup). Then top with the rest of the chocolate batter.
  • Bake until the cake is set around the edges but the center jiggles slightly when the cup is moved, about 12 minutes. Cool slightly (no more than 5 minutes).
  • Run a sharp knife around the edges of the cups. Turn the cakes out onto plates, and serve.

These cakes were a bit too rich for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use a different chocolate next time, maybe a dark chocolate.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but these cakes were still really good. The chocolate was rich and flavorful, and the cakes were moist and fluffy. I would definitely make these again, even though I'm not a chocolate fan.

These cakes were a bit dry, but the chocolate was still good. I think I would add more butter or oil next time.

These cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

These cakes were a bit too rich for my taste, but they were still good. The chocolate was very濃厚 and the cakes were very dense. I think I would prefer a lighter chocolate cake next time.
