Warm Delights Minis Molten Chocolate Cake Copycat Recipes

Steps:

• If you have a digital scale, use it, if not then just use your measuring spoons.
• Put cake mix in a small bowl (I usually don't use any nonstick spray, but you can try it if you want).
• Mix water into cake mix.
• Microwave on high for 40 seconds.
• Top with chocolate chips (they will melt).
• Top with small dollups of frosting.
• Devour it! (yes It's only 135 calories and 6 grams of fat!).

Steps:

• Put the butter in a medium bowl and melt it in the microwave. Add the chocolate to the hot butter and stir until melted.
• Crack 2 eggs into a bowl, and add 2 more yolks (discard the extra whites). Add the sugar, and beat or whisk until light and thick, about 1 minute. Add egg mixture and 2 teaspoons flour to the melted chocolate; beat until combined.
• Butter and lightly flour four 4-ounce molds or ramekins (make sure not to miss any spots, or the cakes will stick). Tap out the excess flour. Divide the batter among the molds. (At this point you can refrigerate them for up to 3 hours; just bring them back to room temperature before baking.)
• When you're ready to bake, heat the oven to 450. Put the molds on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the cakes have puffed up a bit, the tops are barely set and the cakes still jiggle slightly when shaken, 7 to 9 minutes (better underbaked than overbaked). Let sit for 1 minute.
• Put a plate on top of the ramekin and (with a potholder to protect your hand) carefully invert the cake onto the plate. Let it sit for 10 seconds, then lift up the ramekin. Serve immediately, with ice cream, sorbet or whipped cream.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Make the cakes: Brush the four 1 1/4 cup brioche molds or jumbo muffin cups with the 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Dust the molds with cocoa powder and tap out the excess.
• 2. Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Bring milk and 3/4 cup water to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat; set aside.
• 3. Combine the vegetable oil, 4 tablesoons room-temperature butter and sugar in a stand mixer and beat with the paddle attachment on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down the bowl and beater as needed. Add 1/2 cup cocoa powder and the vanilla; beat 1 minute on medium-low speed, then add the remaining egg and beat 1 more minute.
• 4. With the mixer on low speed, gradually beat in the flour mixture, then the hot milk mixture. Finish mixing the batter with a rubber spatula until combined. Divide the batter evenly among the molds, filling each slightly more then three-quarters of the way.
• 5. Transfer the mold to a baking sheet and bake until tops of the cakes are domed and the centers are barely set, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a rack; let the cakes cool until they pull away from the molds, about 30 minutes.
• 6. MAKING THE FILLING: Microwave the chocolate, cream, butter, and corn syrup in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervels, stirring each time, until chocolate starts to melt, 1 minute 30 seconds. Let sit 3 minutes, then whisk until smooth. Reheat before using, if necessary.
• 7. Use the tip of the paring knife to gently loosen the cakes from the molds, then invert the cakes onto a cutting board.
• 8. Use the knife to cut a 1 1/2 inch circle on the top of each cake, cutting almost to the bottom.
• 9. Hollow out the cakes with a spoon; save the scraps. Wrap the cakes with plastic wrap and microwave until steaming, 1 minute.
• 10. Drizzle plates with caramel, then unwrap the cakes and place on top. Pour about 3 tablespoons filling into each cake.
• 11. Plug the hole with the cake scraps. Save or discard any remaining scraps.
• 12. Top each cake with a scoop of ice cream. Spoon more chocolate sauce on top, spreading it thin so it hardens into a shell.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the cakes: Brush four 1 1/4-cup brioche molds (or use 10-ounce ramekins or jumbo muffin cups) with the 2 tablespoons melted butter. Dust the molds with cocoa powder and tap out the excess.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Bring the milk and 3/4 cup water to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat; set aside.

Add 1/2 cup cocoa powder and the vanilla; beat 1 minute on medium speed. Scrape down the bowl. Add 1 egg and beat 1 minute on medium-low speed, then add the remaining egg and beat 1 more minute.
• With the mixer on low speed, gradually beat in the flour mixture, then the hot milk mixture. Finish mixing the batter with a rubber spatula until combined. Divide the batter evenly among the molds, filling each slightly more than three-quarters of the way.

Steps:

• Mix water and mix and put topping on top. Place in microwavable dish and microwave for about 30 seconds.
