Guiltless Warm Flourless Chocolate Cake Recipes

Steps:

• In a double boiler, heat the butter and chocolate together until the chocolate is almost completely melted. While heating up, beat together all the eggs, yolks, and sugar with a whisk or electric mixer until light and thick.
• Beat together the melted chocolate and butter; it should be quite warm. Pour in the egg mixture, and then quickly beat in the flour just until combined.
• Butter and lightly coat 8 (4-ounce) ramekins with ground gingerbread. Tap the excess gingerbread off and then butter and gingerbread them again. Divide batter among the molds.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Bake the molds on a sheet tray for 6 to 7 minutes; the center will still be quite soft, but the sides will be set. Then you know it is ready. Let rest for 10 seconds and then serve with whip cream.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Butter the bottom and sides of a deep 9 inch round springform pan.
• Line the bottom of the pan with a round of parchment paper and butter the paper.
• In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, process the chocolates, sugar, and coffee 15-20 seconds until finely ground.
• With the motor of the food processor running, pour the boiling water through the feed tube.
• Process 10-15 seconds, until the chocolate is completely melted.
• Scrape down sides of bowl with spatula.
• Add butter and eggs and vanilla and then process about 5 seconds until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
• Scrape chocolate batter into prepared pan and smooth top.
• Bake 55-60 minutes until edges are puffy and center is just set.
• Cool on wire rack for 30 minutes.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
• Make raspberry sauce with frozen raspberries and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
• Cook until sugar is dissolved and berries are just soft. {Don't boil}
• Strain mixture and stir in raspberry liqueur.
• Remove cake from pan by running a thin knife blade around cake to loosen from pan.
• Invert cake onto a plate and peal off paper.
• Refrigerate cake while preparing whipped cream.
• Whip cream with sugar and vanilla to stiff peaks.
• To serve drizzle some raspberry coulis on each plate; cut thin slice of cake and place on plate.
• Garnish slices of cake with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh raspberries.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom of a 10 inch springform pan, and line with parchment paper.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir in chocolate, and continue to stir until almost melted. Remove from heat, and stir until melted and smooth. In a large bowl, stir together 1 1/4 cups sugar and the cocoa powder. Whisk in the eggs until well blended, then whisk in the chocolate and butter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake for about 45 minutes in the preheated oven. The cake is ready when the edges have nicely puffed and the surface is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken. Cool cake in the pan over a wire rack. Run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen the cake, then remove the sides of the pan, and invert onto a serving plate. Remove the parchment paper.
• In a heavy saucepan, stir together 1 1/2 cups of sugar, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook without stirring until the syrup is a deep amber color. For an accurate color check, dip a metal spoon into the syrup and lift it out of the pan to check the color. Once the syrup is amber, remove from the heat. Gradually stir in the cream. The mixture will bubble vigorously. If lumps form, stir gently over low heat to dissolve them. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter.
• Cut the cake into wedges while warm, and serve with caramel sauce spooned over it. You can also chill the cake and sauce, then warm again before serving.

Steps:

• Melt together the butter and chocolate in a small saucepan over very low heat, stirring to mix.

• Pour in the chocolate, and beat another 15-30 seconds, until it is mixed well.
