Vegetable spray, for greasing liners
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, preferably Scharffen Berger
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon gray salt

1
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
2
Line the cupcake pan with paper liners and spray the liners with vegetable spray.
3
Shave 5 ounces of chocolate and put it into a bowl.
4
Cut the remaining 3 ounces of chocolate into roughly 1/2-inch pieces, set aside.
5
Combine the butter and cream in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
6
When the cream mixture comes to a simmer, pour it over the shaved chocolate and stir gently to melt the chocolate.
7
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, mayonnaise, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt just until the sugar has dissolved.
8
Pour the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and gently mix just until combined.
9
(Mixing too much will prevent the eggs from rising in the oven.)
10
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the batter into each mold, it should come about 3/4 of the way up the sides.
11
Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
12
Do not over bake.
13
Immediately while hot, add a chunk of the remaining chocolate in the center of each, by gently pushing it through the top of the cupcake in the center.
14
Cool the pan on a rack for 10 minutes and then unmold them.
15
Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
