The story behind this recipe
I don't think there is anyone who couldn't make this wonderful dessert! It is very easy to prepare, and with it, you will win over any chocolate lover :)
For 4 servings, you will need:
2 eggs
2 level tablespoons of sugar
1 tablespoon of flour
100 grams of dark chocolate
Half a pack of butter - 125 gr
Optionally, 1 level tablespoon of cocoa powder
First, melt the butter with the chocolate and the cocoa powder. You can also put it in the microwave on the "defrost" setting for 3 minutes.
Separately, beat the eggs with the sugar and flour. When the chocolate melts, take a whisk and incorporate it into the egg cream. Mix gently until homogeneous.
Grease the muffin molds with butter and dust them with sugar.
Now pour in the mixture, leaving about a finger's width of space until the molds are full. Put them in the oven at 200 degrees for 12 minutes, or more precisely until they crack on top.
During this time, you have plenty of time to decide what to serve the cake with. There are many options: ice cream of any kind, sorbet, fruit cream, etc.
I wish you a good appetite and moderation :)!
