1
Prepare the boiling water for the hot water bath.
-
2
Preheat the oven to 180C.
-
3
Chop up the chocolate and place into a heatproof bowl.
-
4
Cut the butter into 2 cm chunks and add to the bowl.
-
5
Heat the chocolate and butter in the microwave for 1:30.
-
6
It's okay if it doesn't completely melt at this point.
-
7
Set in the water bath and mix while slowly melting the rest of the way.
-
8
When the chocolate and butter have completely melted, mix in the sugar (while still in the water bath).
-
9
Add one of the eggs and mix.
-
10
Once mixed, add in the other egg and mix.
-
11
It's okay if you add the eggs without beating first.
-
12
Do this in the water bath as well.
-
13
Continue mixing until glossy, mixing slowly so as not to form bubbles (still in the water bath).
-
14
Transfer to the aluminum cup and drop onto a table to release any air bubbles.
-
15
Bake at 180C for 20 minutes.
-
16
It's done!
-
17
It'll be puffed up when baked, but will dent as it cools.
-
18
If you use a 6 cm silicone cup, bake at 180C for 13 minutes.
-
19
The center won't be hard, but it will firm up when cooled.
-
20
When eating, bring it to room temperature or eat chilled.
-
21
You can also warm it in the microwave for 30 seconds to melt the center.
-
22
Once cooled, you can cleanly remove it from the pan.
-
23
Note: In the summer, you don't even need to use the water bath to melt it!
-
24
Super easy!
-
25
Note: If you add some rum, brandy, or cognac at the end, it will have an adult taste!
-
26
Use 1~2 tablespoons!
-
27
Note: If you change the bar chocolate to confectionery chocolate and the butter to cultured butter, it will be even more rich!
