Mini Chocolate Raspberry Cakes image

Instead of making individual hot fudge sundaes for guests, make these cute little cakes! Raspberry and chocolate always pair well. I like to stir 1/2 cup raspberries directly into the sauce, but you can also use them as a garnish.-Pamela Shank, Parkersburg, West Virginia

I'm not a fan of raspberries, so I substituted blueberries instead. They were still very good.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little more chocolate to the batter.

I made these cakes gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour blend. They were just as good as the regular version.

I had a hard time finding fresh raspberries, so I used frozen ones instead. The cakes still turned out great.

These cakes were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but these cakes were surprisingly delicious. The raspberry filling was the perfect balance of tart and sweet.
