Ingredients

For the Chocolate Fudge Cakes

  • 2 tablespoons butter Plus a bit more for greasing
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 splash vanilla, espresso powder, or cinnamon Optional enhancements

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease two ramekins or two spots in a muffin pan.
  • Melt the butter and chocolate together in the microwave in short bursts, stirring each time to prevent scorching.
  • Whisk in the egg and sugar until the mixture looks glossy.
  • Add cocoa, flour, and salt, then stir just until no dry flour is visible.
  • Divide the batter equally into the two ramekins.

Baking

  • Bake for about 10 to 14 minutes, until the edges look set but the center is still slightly underdone.
  • Let the cakes sit for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Top with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

For a delicious serving idea, add a spoon of raspberry jam on the side to enhance the chocolate flavor.
