Molten Chocolate Cakes
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp salted butter, plus extra for greasing
- 2 ½ oz unsweetened baking chocolate, chopped
- 2 large eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 7 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp all purpose flour
Directions
1) Grease cocottes with butter and coat with flour or cocoa powder, tapping out excess.
2) Place butter and unsweetened baking chocolate in a large heat proof bowl. Microwave at 50% power for 1 minute. Stir and then microwave for 1 minute more at 50% power until smooth. Set aside.
3) In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, combine eggs, yolk, sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Whip on high speed until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Transfer egg mixture to bowl with chocolate. Sprinkle flour over the egg mixture. Gently fold everything together until combined.
4) Divide mixture between the prepared cocottes. Place cocottes in a Suvie pan or on a Suvie roasting pan. Place in the bottom zone of Suvie. Input settings and cook now.

The recipe doesn’t say when to add in the vanilla. We just added it with the eggs and sugar. The recipe is amazing!
