Molten Chocolate Cake for Valentine's Day

1. 1

   Sift the ingredients.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 180C.

3. 3

   Combined the finely chopped chocolate and butter, and melt over a double boiler.

4. 4

   Beat the eggs in a bowl, and whip a little bit by a hand mixer.

5. 5

   Add the sugar, and whip until lightly thickened.

6. 6

   Add the Step 3 mixture into Step 2 little by little (make sure it was mixed well until it became lustrous) and slowly mix without ruining the airy, bubbly batter so it doesn't shrink back down.

7. 7

   Add the sifted ingredients little by little, and fold in.

8. 8

   Fill the molds with the mixture to about 80%, and bake in a preheated oven for about 10 minutes.

9. 9

   When the surface starts to crack it's a sign that they're done.

10. 10

    Let it cool in the mold, sprinkle powdered sugar to your liking, then it's done.

11. 11

    Freshly baked ones are hot, crispy, soft and creamy.

12. 12

    That's the best.

13. 13

    Even when you bake in muffin molds, the baking time is the same.

14. 14

    I recommend checking the oven constantly so that they won't be over cooked.

15. 15

    If you are planning to eat them after they've completely cooled, microwave for about 20 seconds and they'll be soft and creamy again.
