I shamefully admit I don't know my way around Photoshop...I can crop...that's about it. But, B is like a Photoshop wizard. He's like the Bruce Lee of Photoshop. He was all clicking here, clicking there, and typing commands as fast as his fingers could fly. I contributed by standing over his shoulder and painting my nails...
Any way, all that to say I'm going to post the recipe for the chocolate lava cake...because that's all I can bring to the table. Sorry, I don't have a picture..we ate it too quickly while celebrating B's awesomeness.
Chocolate Lava Cake
4 squares Semi-sweet Baking Chocolate
1/2 Cup Butter
1 Cup Powdered Sugar
2 Whole Eggs
2 Egg Yolks
6 Tbs Flour
Preheat oven to 425 degrees (I set my oven to 400)
Spray 4 custard cups with cooking spray and place on cookie sheet.
Microwave chocolate and butter in large bowl on high for about 1 minute, until butter is melted. Whisk chocolate until melted.
Stir in sugar until well blended. Whisk in eggs and egg yolks. Stir in flour.
Divide between cups.
*Bake 10-12 minutes until sides are firm and center is soft. Let stand 1 minute.
Serve with *vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream
**Do not over bake or the center will be done instead of nice and gooey.
We serve ours with homemade buttermilk ice cream...the tanginess of the ice cream pairs well with the cake.
Happy Monday!
