Mini French Fudge Cakes
Ingredients
  • 1 (4 ounce) bittersweet chocolate bar, chopped
  • 1 1/2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons organic all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 (4 ounce) bittersweet chocolate bar, broken into 1/2-inch pieces
Instructions
1
Firstly, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, take a dark-colored metal pan and grease it with cooking spray to ensure your cupcakes release easily.
3
Now, place 1 chopped bar of bittersweet chocolate and 1/2 bar of unsweetened chocolate along with 1 tablespoon of butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
4
Place the bowl in the microwave and heat on low power for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the butter has melted and the chocolate is soft.
5
Check on the bowl every 30 seconds to avoid burning the chocolate, and stir until it's smooth.
6
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together cinnamon, vanilla extract, eggs, egg yolk, sugar, and salt until well combined.
7
Add the flour to the bowl and mix just until it's blended into the mixture.
8
Mix in the chocolate mixture, stirring a few times until everything is smooth and well combined.
9
Add 1/2 bar of bittersweet chocolate, broken into small pieces, to the mixture and lightly stir until it's fully incorporated.
10
Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
11
Place the cupcakes in the preheated oven and bake until a knife inserted into the center of a cake comes out with streaks of thick batter, about 18 minutes.
12
The tops of the cakes should be almost firm by this time. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan on a rack for 5 to 10 minutes before serving warm, or 20 minutes before serving at room temperature.
